Were they being unreasonable? You bet.

It seemed Camerons proposed NHS changes had stirred the politicos and others up to boiling point.

The footballer spoke well; even though he supported the Coalition. (Never said "over the moon" once)

Mr Hughes the Liberals Deputy leader, seems
to be a bit uncomfortable about some govt policies.
cheers "Gabby"

Me thinks you show your political colours a little too readily.

I just about prefer Campbell to Coulson...I have seen Campbell perform in public.

I suppost most of the big players are human beings before they become politicians.

Only Barbara Cartland would romanticise a top political job.

Funny things do happen. Pres JFK told Harold Macmillion that he "Got headaches if he did not have a woman for 3 days"
Apparently it had to be a different woman

cheers "Gabby"

what??

Chil1234 · 21/01/2011 15:44

Usual random non-sequiturs in place of conversation. Keep taking the tablets.

Chil and Blackduck....you are not outdoing JFK on the shagging front, are you?

CHIL1234 You do write like a political "Activist" Its not a crime.
So are you signed up to a political party?

I am not

I have overlooked the possibility of CHIL 1234 being a grammatical snob. (its worse than a money snob)

My favourite thing about JFK was when he went to Berlin and tried to speak German and said "Ich Bin Ein Berliner" which meant I am a doughnut, But I read somewhere that it wasn't true and "Berliner" mean pastry puff or summat.

giyadas · 21/01/2011 16:30

I liked the Red Dwarf episode where they speculated what would have happened if JFK hadn't been shot.

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:31

Yes, and saying I am a pastry puff is far preferable to saying I am a doughnut.

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:32

I did not see QT - who was the footballer?

DameShirleyKnot · 21/01/2011 16:32

Well, QUITE.

I read a biography of Jackie Onnassisisoss Kennedy Bouvier once.

It was interesting.

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:32

Chil - just go with it and see what happens. I think of haikus

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:33

Dameshirley. I haven't read that book. But I have read others

ElsieMc · 21/01/2011 16:35

Don't know, but he was a darn sight better to look at than George or Alastair. More coherent too. YANBU some evil tempers last night.

DameShirleyKnot · 21/01/2011 16:36

I have also read many many other books.

I like to watch films as well but mainly I like books and smokking fags.

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:37

Is that like darning homosexuals?

c0rn5i1k123 · 21/01/2011 16:39

Christopher Ecclestone was there in his incarnation as ninth doctor according to Dr Who. JFK day I mean.

c0rn5i1k123 · 21/01/2011 16:39

who made shirley a dame? I

DameShirleyKnot · 21/01/2011 16:40

ha.

Corny. I haven't seen you for ages

Forest Gump met him didn't he? Or was that Richard Nixon?

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:40

... phew, I thought you meant QT, and I thought "blimey it has been dumbed down"

Dame Shirley "the ich bin" was a cracker.

Jamie Lee...I think the footballer was a Burnley full back. I am not sure I think he writes poetry. And has an official position with the players union.

The thing about JFK..was not only was he "at it"..but he was a it all over the place. No foreplay...just wham bang, watch me bad back

I once asked a top journo if they knew about it? He said "yes we did, but were told by the govt it was a scurity matter"

Is Belasconi JFK reincarnated? "Gabby"

Forest Gump met Dr Who? Christ on a bike

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:43

yy - JFK was sexually incontieint (which sounds messier than it is)

Berlusconi is a sociopath, AFAIK

I thought perhaps the footballer was the one who used to be accused by other footballers of being gay, because he admitted to reading the Guardian and could say a bit more than "we ran out of ideas in the final third". Can't remember his name

JamieLeeCurtis · 21/01/2011 16:44

incontinent - inconteint is something else entirely

c0rn5i1k123 · 21/01/2011 16:45

Forrest Gump met him I'm sure or his brother did. Are you a panto dame shirley?
