If we can get our hands free to type from the constant facepalming, we should be able to post on this topic.

I appreciate that, Across - which is why I said 'when this is all over'. The fact remains that there are a goodly number of people who would feel disenfranchised if 45 went. I see no other way to give them a voice and a stake in the country.

Thanks

Sorry. The quote was approximate and not exact.

Oh Dear. I guess that someone ought to be thinking about a new thread?

So much rich material to choose from for the new header. Someone else should do the honours in the tradition of our collective.

There's a vote on Tuesday? And then it goes to 45's desk for signature? (Which it was might not get.)

Ignore that 'was'. My autocorrect reminding me of its presence, I think.

It has to reference Sean.

The Russia Sanctions bill really puts Scrotus between the devil and the deep blue sea, doesn't it? But I have a feeling he'll side with his butt-buddy Pootie in the end. Ha ha. Get it? In the end.

FTFY cozie hic!!

BTW, did you know that gin & soda with a splash of Ribena tastes pretty good? My local grocery has just started stocking it. I'd never had it before so I'm trying it with everything. So far, so good!

I love that Ribena is exotic in the US. It is ubiquitous here & my kids get through a lot of blackcurrant squash. My Dad told me a while back that 95% of UK grown blackcurrants go into Ribena/generic blackcurrant squash. I can believe it (though I wish they were easier to get hold of for making blackcurrant & vanilla curd).

Catching up slowly. Hackmum - "I used to love Soap. Don't know many people who remember it!"

Haven't caught up with the full thread, but I note
45 thanked Spicey for his service, but did it through the medium of SHS.

No personal tweeting from 45. Sad.
