Who's the old looking guy on the right??

I can recall, vaguely, watching Monkey on BBC2 many years ago (possibly around the late 70's/early 80's). I was always very unsure whether the actor who played the prient was male or female. Now, as I walk around Edinburgh during the Festival, I have that same sense of confusion when I spot the Lady Boys of Bangkok

Let's not skip ahead too far. Unless you plan on 2 in one day that is. Anyone know if Thatcher and Foot are travelling together to Robin Cook's funeral ?

From this article about Robin Cook, it looks as if he will be attending the funeral tomorrow. Good opportunity to check him out.

Couldn't agree more

Maybe what he really meant was ... a loser ... a child ... someone with no sense of humour ... good riddance

On the off chance that I'm not saying this to a troll: that is the way these fora work. Admins and moderators have absolute power. This is not a democracy, there is no freedom of speech and there is no way to remove them. We mere mortals may post, but there's no guarantee that our posts remain unaltered or present at all. You don't have to like it. You don't have to post. regards, Hein I would also like to think that the Admin and Mods here are pretty laid back, generous to a fault, clever and witty, good looking, don't abuse their powers (too much) and are great in the sack. I'd like to think that, but unfortunately only the last part is true

Apart from the statements about no-one liking or respecting honez, having no friends, nothing to live for, your chances of flying to Australia and finding him (not to mention butchering him to death), and your belief that you are the lord almighty, I can't find anything to fault in your argument. Suppose we better remove him then

Ahh, now I see. The classic symptons were all there, especially the typical 14 year-olds whine 'it's not fair'. But are you sure there is not some inferiority complex at work - after all, someone who calls themselves 'the authority', 'john bull'and 'the lord almighty' is obviously trying to compensate for something

Neither can we

Ahh, now I know why he is so upset. Inferiority complex. Perhaps a little 'Mod envy' in there as well. Do we have a psychologist here who may be able to help? Windsor - you seem to have developed a good relationship with our guest; would you like to help?

An odd birthday present

I reckon this one is the fake post. It doesn't end 'I am the authority'. Bit of a give away there.

Or lead singer with East 17

but only if we lie down, or they raise his wheelchair on a forklift

From the article Looks like that "connection with God" is about to become a lot more personal

I'm more interested in when he will ascend to the heavens

I think you may find that lots of non-breathing things make it onto the forum.

Were his hands shaking because the man opposite looked middle-Eastern and was wearing a rucksack??

That won't help him have accidents. regards, Hein Maybe he'll get an electric wheelchair & have accidents in that. Is it possible to be electrocuted by driving the wheelchair into a swimming pool?? Although going on past experience, he would probably fall out before he reached the water!

Don't forget Ron Brown, at one time my MP. (In)famous for throwing the Mace of the floor of the House of Commons, being good friends with Gaddafi, and thinking the Russians were in Afghanistan on a 'civilising mission'. Since being dumped by the Labour party, he joined the Scottish Socialist Party, and still seems to be onvolved in politics (just not as an elected member!). He was seriously ill back in Feb, but appears to have recovered.

Visited a friends today, and they had a copy of The Sun. About the best bit in it (apart from some photo's of Orlaith from Big Brother ) was this joke. End of the summer holidays, and Primary 4 class (9/10 year olds for those not familar with UK education system) return to school. The teachers, Miss Jones, says to them all 'Children, now you are in primary 4, we don't use baby words anymore - only grown up words. So, Jane, what did you do during your holiday?' 'I went to visit my nana, miss' 'No Jane, not nana, you went to visit your grandmother. Remember, grown up words! And Samantha, what about you?' 'I went on a choo-choo, miss' 'No Samantha - you went on a train. Grown-up words!!' A little boy at the back, Jack, puts up his hand. 'Yes, Jack?' 'I read a book, miss' Suprised, the teachers said, 'And what book was that Jack?' 'It was Winnie the Sh1t, miss'

And for those of you who do not receive Radio Scotland, you can check it out here. I don't know if it was only shown in Scotland, but there was also a TV version on BBC. Can't remember the night it was on though, and it never seemed as good as the radio version.

Just wait until Kir5ty dies, and we change the topic title back to her proper name
