    LD's have already 'sold out' .. not to quote them but I will summarise.. 'we will not be siding with the conservatives!'.. erm.. hello... I think you might just be doing that..yellow livered, turn coat, wishy-washy, scumbags... they need some backbone.. even their policies do not make sense.. reform this, upgrade that, change the other... and where is the money coming from? Oh, the money tree in the garden at 10 Downing Street.. silly me!!

    Cameron is a !!!!!! and needs to be gone.. they would have got in if it hadn't been for him and his holier than thou, up his own @r$e and seeing double arrogance... sanctimonious cretin... i don't like him.. in case you couldn't guess.

    Brown should never have been put as leader.. he is a gonk!

    I love politics..

    Back from hospital FINALLY.. we were walking out of the door and Moomin started upchucking.. therefore an extra 45 minutes and another blood sugar check before we were allowed home.. she just needs a huge dose of carbs and she'll be fine.. Results should be back in about 2-3 weeks.. but we shall see..

    dinner in oven.. just need to slop up shortly.. bed early for me tonight as I am exhausted.. Squeak has kicked the living daylights out of me today.. I don't think he is used to be sitting doing nothing so was making his presence known!.. Ratbag!
    at his point during my catch up I had Piggers figured for head honcho

    Mags Cat she should have put a collect day/date on th e order form or on a note- if that is past then bin it or if no collection details then just bin it - the order date will be past and she will have moved onto the next brochure. HTH

    If piggers is PM what will I be - I do have a financial background so i could be Chancellor!!!
    toots xx


    ETA sorry Valli you got there before me so i will let you have the Chancellor - what about Rach for Culture? And what about Dusty - environment??? or maybe it should be water authority regulator:rotfl:
    Peace will be mine

    Well we'd sure make a better job of it than the shower we have as MPs. Of any colour. Honestly, I think the whole bunch of them need a kick up the proverbial.

    ETA Please can I be Chief Whip?;)

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: - Can I be tea-lady? I make a lovely brew - Yorkshire of course. (I've also got coffee, herbal/fruity teas, chocolate, bovril, cuppa soup, horlicks, milk, juice or council pop...)

    Plus I need a bucket - just watching Mr & Mrs C go in the door of number 10, I'm cleaning my sick or the slimey trail he left on the doorstep :D

    valli - there's a couple of us who could do Foreign Secretary!! Love your list.

    Flitting in and out quickly. Gardened Sunday, worked Monday (kids in maniac mood), and then flopped today - didn't feel at all well, so curled up with a book this morning, cleaned downstairs (but not usual Level 3) early afternoon, then pottered in garden late afternoon, and made a cake too.

    DS2 wants computer, so going to have a cup of tea, pack my bag tomorrow and find junk to watch.


    eta get well vibes for boddy's GGD

    Love and hugs all round, I've just caught up with this week's thread.
