I started with Germaine Greer, then was interrupted:

2: Jeni Murray.(womens Hour R 4) Does a good job putting the womens case on issues.
Asks all the right questions. Does not take prisoners. A serious broadcaster.

3: Kirsty young. (Desert Island Discs.)

Digs deep with her interviews. I was disappointed when she did Crimewatch. Seems to be hiding her real talent for later in her career.

4: Libby Purves. Midweek R4 and the Times.) A real "Mrs sensible" Very rational view of life. Brainy and forceful. Not too understanding of unambitious people. Who are often very nice.

5: Kirsty Wark: (TV Newsnight.)

Very impressive. Good interviewer, pushes hard but not offensive. Said to be good fun at parties. I will look forward to what kirsty does next.

More next time. They will all get promoted
(hopefully)

Howls

I have been in every daily sunday and evening paper; plus Private Eye, Specct tator and new statesman.

Its my versatility of phrase which gets me in

Like "he has as much depth as a pancake which has been sat on by apregnant elephant."

Or..."Cameron has all the charm of a ferret in a rabbit hutch"

Howls Let me know an EVENING PAPER you have access to; and I will get in it under my real name. thats the beast deal you will get

Would you prefer real names on Mumsnet

Thingumy · 16/12/2010 17:01

FellatioNelson · 16/12/2010 17:01

I really don't know why I am on this thread. Confused

It's a bit like a scab you can't help picking. Grin

jonesybells · 16/12/2010 17:08

I believe they are called Peruvian hats, Gabby.

jonesybells · 16/12/2010 17:11

if it's one of these that is

Thingumy · 16/12/2010 17:13

this thread is like lsd experience...

AngelZigzagsSparklyYuletideLog · 16/12/2010 18:21

There once was a poster called Gabby

Some thought the threads posted just shabby

Gabz rocks up and bumps

but never gets the hump

So it looks like hairy truckers aren't crabby (after all)

A Christmas present just for you Gabz Grin

Cheers!

AngelZigzagsSparklyYuletideLog · 16/12/2010 18:25

Gah! I should have read your post fellatio, I could have used scabby in the last line Grin

FellatioNelson · 16/12/2010 22:49

I'm chuffed. I've had my first ever MN deletion on account of being offensive. Things like that never happen to me. I'm so proud.

GabbyLoggon · 17/12/2010 12:10

would you be even prouder if you got totally banned? Fellatio Cant you see the sense in rules in life? anarchy has never been voted in because hardly anyone believes in it.

I think there would be something to be said for posters stating their gender.

GabbyLoggon · 17/12/2010 12:12

Angel I welcome the struggle you faced with
getting things to rhyme. It aint easy.

OP posts:
GabbyLoggon · 17/12/2010 12:15

Some [posters dont respect the rules
they struggle like drunken mules.

 to show off with swearing
  and anarchical daring.

 the obvious end product is fools
