    But seriously, having caught myself questioning the humanity of all those Americans and world leaders currently expressing their joy at the death of another human being, albeit a foreigner and a mass murderer (The US has the death penalty, most European states don't but let's not go there), I asked myself if I wouldn't be just as happy if Thatcher were to die. The answer is probably, although I expect Thatcher's death to be a bit of an anticlimax, given that it isn't going to undo anything she did.

    I'd prefer Lady Thatcher to be kept alive and conscious indefinitely, in great discomfort, being lectured on the error of her ways by embittered ex-miners armed with electric cattle prods.

    Does one get into trouble for saying things like that?

    All these years after the end of her reign she still seems to stir up emotions in this forum. The Government may find itself under pressure to provide photographic proof of her demise, followed by a swift burial at sea over the wreck of the Belgrano to prevent any possibility that her grave becomes a rallying point for Tory suicide squads left behind as sleepers on Mothers' Union committees throughout the Home Counties. I suppose the circulation of a photograph would be considered too gruesome for public consumption. But, without it, conspiracy theorists may be tempted to believe she could be still alive, living on a banana plantation in Paraguay. And even when she's gone her old personal bodyguard, Von Tebbit, will remain to carry the torch at future Nuremberg Rallies Conservative Party Conferences.

     

    Meanwhile former activists and supporters will continue to meet in the bier kellers of Basingstoke and Tunbridge Wells, reminiscing over the old times and singing the

    at the Parish Council. Yes, those were the days, when the reds were rolled back over the steppes of South Yorkshire and Thatcher's forces could almost reach out and touch Barnsley town hall. But they couldn't get Scargill and the old bastard lives on with his memories, his banners and his heavily decorated cap even as NUM veterans coo over the royal wedding in their former council houses acquired under the right-to-buy legislation.

     

    Oh, and by the way, they didn't get me.

    He's apparently dead, according to CNN and possibly Obama in a upcoming speech here.

     

    BBC reporting it on BBCnews24 too.

    I had imagined that he died years ago. I don't know, call me sceptical, but I can't help but wonder if he's really dead.. There's no denying the fact that it comes at a good time for Obama - what with his waning popularity and all. No doubt, this will do his popularity no harm at all..

    It's snowed heavily here all night - which should make for some beautiful photos, however, I don't much relish the thought of slipping on an icy footpath. If I happen to fall (again) and break my neck (as opposed to cracking a vertebrae which happened last year) It'll be a short stay in Switzerland (if I'm not killed on the spot, that is!) for me!! :P

    I see the cheapskate didn't even fork out for a ring.

     

    I did hear that it used to belong to saint - so I suppose that makes up for it...

    If that thing was a saint, then I'm Pope F**king Benedict! :lol:

     

    you're f**king Pope Benedict? How old are you...?

    No, nor have I ever had the (dis)pleasure!! I was merely trying to point out that the late Princes Of Wales was a media savvy, manipulative so and so, and not the ''angel'' portrayed after her death by the brigade of hypocrites, who wept crocodile tears!

    I think it's about time to pull together a list of all those recent outstanding predictions in a sweepstake type fashion and now some-what add to it's girth.

     

    Madame Defarge - Sep 5th

    maryportfuncity - Sep 12th

    wildstorm - Sep 15th

    Tomb raider - Oct 1st

    The Unknown Man - Oct 9th

    Ra Ra Rasputin - Oct 26th

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rotten Ali - November 29th

    philheybrookbay - December 6th

    heaven can wait - December 12th

    CarolAnn - December 20th

    chicago103 - "before the end of the year" = December 31st

    Kaylia K (finally coming up with) - "the new year" = January 1st

    Vaagheid - "two more months" = January 13th

    Durham Red - "a few more years" = 19th August 2012

    Paul Bearer - 21st Dec 2012

     

    Now so many of these have already expired, I think it's fair to say that every one should get the chance to make a new prediction if they need one.

     

    I didn't know we were doing a sweepstake

     

    When I said "Another couple of months" I didn't mean "two months".

     

    Can you change my predictions into the 9th march?

    By 'the new year', I didn't mean January 1st - I was referring to any time in the first few months of 2011.

    Luvverly pictures in The Sun today of Gazza spewing up out of an MG sports car in the middle lane of the M1 during a traffic jam. His manager was driving, though you've got to wonder exactly how he was 'managing' our man at that moment.

     

    And here is the picture if anyone is interested

     

    Gazza Barf

     

    Shame it wasn't windy like today. Would have been much more explosive. Even better if the snoop taking the photo got a splatter... 3D style

    In that link it was mentioned that Gazza would give up the booze for a chance to be an actor - he must have been pissed out of his mind when he made that declaration! :lol:
