Ahem, do not tar the wonderfulness of the Classics by association
Mr Johnson Senior's insane bibbling on about how Boris will make a great Mayor because he knows Latin and Greek does not mean these great languages have nothing to teach us

mourningpaper · 02/05/2008 20:58

well that's it

I ate a Muller Corner with Vanilla Choco Balls

I can't sink much lower

FairyMum · 02/05/2008 20:58

Like father like son I think.

beansprout · 02/05/2008 20:58

Oh blimey MP, you are in a bad way.

DefinitelyNotMARINAWheeler · 02/05/2008 20:58

beansprout, even if we are falling down drunk here we are still watching Peepshow. The parallel universe of Super Hans never looked so appealing

staranise · 02/05/2008 20:58

It ain't over til the Fat Lady sings... (in Latin?)

beansprout · 02/05/2008 20:59

I don't drink so am having to sit here and feel every painful fecking minute of this.

DefinitelyNotMARINAWheeler · 02/05/2008 20:59

Cheese string, MP? Billy Bear "ham" sandwich on Sunblest?

beansprout · 02/05/2008 21:00

Peep Show is genius but I am just too depressed. George Clooney could turn up and I wouldn't have the energy to answer the door atm.

mourningpaper · 02/05/2008 21:00

Did you read that David Mitchell said that Russell Brand was intervieded for the position of Super Mans but didn't get it?

MerryMarigold · 02/05/2008 21:00

oh, i rather like the idea of BJ being blamed for making a hash of the Olympics.

nkf · 02/05/2008 21:00

And is there really going to be a BNP candidate?

I feel quite ridiculously upset. As if London has been polluted and I do love the place.

I'll be blubbling into my beer next.

beansprout · 02/05/2008 21:00

RB as Superhans would have been fab.

mourningpaper · 02/05/2008 21:01

I might smoke a Cheesestring after my next beer

beansprout · 02/05/2008 21:01

Brian Blessed on HIGNFY might be a good bet?

nkf · 02/05/2008 21:01

But when he messes it all up he won't care because he doesn't care. Because he's rich and self satisfied and selfish and a journalist for God's sake! A hack in charge of London. It's appalling.

policywonk · 02/05/2008 21:02

Do you know, I'd forgotten what it was like to lose an election. I mean, I'm no fan of New Labour, but since 1997 I haven't felt sick at an election result. (Well, apart from US elections of course.)

mourningpaper · 02/05/2008 21:03

I know JUST what you mean PW

policywonk · 02/05/2008 21:03

Oooh Marcus Handsome is on HIGNFY

nkf · 02/05/2008 21:03

Same here. The last time I felt like this was Thatcher's second win.

beansprout · 02/05/2008 21:03

It's like 1992 all over again.

mourningpaper · 02/05/2008 21:03

HIGNFY it is

HMmm I thought I was going to watch Dr Who but I've seen this episode

scottishmummy · 02/05/2008 21:04

so was it a Pro-Boris validation or Anti-Ken labour sentiment?

talilac · 02/05/2008 21:04

Ooh theres a LA result in. Conservatives hold Bexley and Bromley.

nkf · 02/05/2008 21:04

Worthless places.
I think the suburbs should be banned from voting. Bromley isn't London anyway. It's Kent.
