I'm getting irrationally nervous about this election. I feel a bit like being 3-0 up against Spurs with 10 minutes to play. You know it's done and dusted, but you can't wait for the ref to blow up just in case.Quote:

It's a laugh a minute in our house :-|
Isn't she more jewish than him though? I should imagine being married to Monty would turn even the most devout special brew into a rabid jew-baiterQuote:

And have you not pointed out to her that every single vote Labour gets will be seen as an endorsement of its current leadership?
Mary Poppins as directed by Michael Mann?Quote:

But isn't the conservative principle of individual responsibility rooted in the belief that, by according responsibility to the individual, you will in turn encourage a culture in which fewer people require others to take responsibility for them?Quote:
