I met Andrew Neil once.

He was most pleasant.

nevergoogledragonbutter - I always think he looks like he's the sort of chap who'd get a little over-jolly and try to stick his hand down your blouse. I now stand corrected.

They haven't go to it yet.

Too busy with all the real politics.

No, he was really sweet and unassuming.

This was in the states where I don't think he was well known. I was working in the gym of a posh hotel and he came in and did some cardio and some weights.

We had a brief conversation about the fruit juices in the fridge being free. He thought he'd better take 2 then.

Not sure if he picked up on my scottish accent or if he knew he'd been recognised as I was ever so good at pretending not to know people.

I didn't realise he replied to the biscuit question on PMQ with the economy. Strangely I missed that in the media coverage.

That's a nice anecdote nevergoogle... . I'm looking at him a whole new light.

it just keeps getting mentioned everynow and then.

Diane Abbot is worried that people will feel sorry for NG. Amongst other things, although I'm afraid I haven't paid too much attention as I keep flitting around the other threads.

It's going to be their bit of fluff at the end so we can all sleep without worrying about the BNP

They did biscuitgate in the news round up. I think that was all folks. Maybe it was an eloquent silence.
