    :D Hi sweetie, glad your little indisposition has been resolved.

    I find Sainsbugs & Tosspots Cream of Tom in the Basics ranges entirely acceptable, as is Liddly's Bulwark brand. Although it must be said that I have the palette of...... errr...... something without much class. And a digestive system trained on early 1970s skool dinners.

    I wanna sign this petition, too. Where is it, please? I'm a tax-payer and I know my rights and I think those rights should include giving IDS a darned good arris-kicking.

    I think we need to go a bit Frenchie with this one. Cue tumbrils, mobs and Mar can bring her knitting to sit alongside Madame Guilluotine.

    :rotfl: I have just spent a happy half hour looking up Discworld quotes. That one had he not she but I had to change it to make it work for me.

    Cuz I is a [STRIKE]bliddy lunatic[/STRIKE] oops! Freudian slip. I meant to say, I is a lay-dee.

    It was a choice between that one and this one:

    I seem so political and yet most of my life I know what is happening and voted I felt I was in charge of my own destiny. And was reasonably untouched.

    Now though disillutioned somewhat, I am more interested and question much more of what I am told but sometimes wonder if I can I make a difference...I will leave this world trying to.

    So I have been on a protest a couple of weekends ago in Durham.

    I went to Darlington last weekend but I was the only person who turned up:mad:This weekend I think I am in Newcastle. It gets me out of the house if nothing else. I will do what I can to see it is not a wasted journey.

    I don't think I have been in Newcastle for over nearly 30 years...Then again its been much the same with Durham for that matter.

    The demon looked ok to me. Shows the state of my eyes or my brain!
    I like Joe Donnelly and Graham Masterton - these three are my all-time favourites-
