Better get used to losing him.

p.s. Thats 'time' with a small 't'. ;-)

At the risk of being labelled a pedant, David Cameron was an outright winner of the 2010 election; he took 58.8% of the vote. The Conservative Party is another thing entirely. Time you are a pedant. But that statistic throws up another question. Over 40% of the inhabitants of Witney don't think David Cameron is the best person to be thier MP. Surely he should be getting over 70% in a part of the country where children are born sporting blue rosettes. Actually over 60% of the electorate didn't vote for him (the 58.8% is of the 73.3% turnout) but thats our elctoral system for you. What proportion of the votes you (or anybody else) think he should be getting is entirely irrelevant. Anyway, to get the thread back on topic - privatisation & council housing.

No Mr Bond - ex-player and Norwich, Man City, Bournemouth boss John has died.

She's not particularly well-known this side of the pond, but with The Daily Mail embracing all things USAiain, she might get a mention there.

Some of the supporting cast are also worth watching Jeremy Kemp - played Sqn Ldr Tony Shaw in 4 episodes - born 3 Jan 1935 (aged 77); not active since 1998 but with a list of credits as long as your arm, should be assured of an obit. Joanna David - played Cathy Carter in 2 episodes; born 17 January 1947 (aged 65) has appeared in numerous telivision roles and was still acting as of this year (Doctors); obit chances - pretty good. Garrick Hagon - played Lt Jim Phipps in 2 episodes; born 27 September 1939 (aged 72); still working, most recently in last weekends episode of Dr. Who (he was also in the original Dr Who, 40 years previously). Obit chances - fair to good. Geoffrey Palmer - played 'Doc' in 2 episodes;born 4 june 1927 (aged 85); still working, though very much assured of an obit when the time comes (unless there's a cock-up on the editorial front). Has also appeared in both versions of Dr. Who Jim Norton - played Capt. Porteous in 2 episodes; born 4 January 1938 (aged 74); still working, long list of credits including Straw Dogs &,Harry Potter; more than likely to get the requisite obit. I'll add some creative types presently.

I don't seem able to start a new thread... What am I doing wrong, or alternatively, why isn't the forum allowing me this privilege?

Oh boy, if she's still not dead when the Hell is he going to die? Hospitalised after a fall: Well, at least she has lived long enough to see her son's greed be his undoing. Interesting that she's never made the official list when she would be guaranteed extensive media coverage, perhaps DL was fearful of incurring the Dirty Digger's wrath? He's gonna be kinda preoccupied for the foreseeable future... Maybe she's not famous enough in her own right. Perhaps if the DL was Australia-based she might have squeezed in on the strength of her philanthropic endeavours. Perhaps one of our antipodean contributors might venture an opinion.

oo-aaah!

Not that anyone cares (or has for a while) but it be Talk Like a Pirate Day!

Is America one unified whole? Which bit of it are you hating living in at the moment? My face when every English speaking person outside of North America says this same damn thing. We're obviously referring to the Untied States. I'm not speaking Spanish or Portuguese, am I? And when have you ever heard a Canadian call them self American? All that aside, southeast US. Where its hot year around and everyone is an idiot. Quite.
