Lady Grendel 137 Posted May 2, 2009 30 years since she was elected Prime Minister, the Torygraph uses the words 'kittenish and kind' in their headline, not the first two words that spring to my mind when I think of the old bag . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grobler 35 Posted May 3, 2009 30 years since she was elected Prime Minister, the Torygraph uses the words 'kittenish and kind' in their headline, not the first two words that spring to my mind when I think of the old bag . yes , I agree......"kind" probably isn't quite the right word to use when talking about Maggies Greatness . "Strong , but fair " is closer to the mark . However , "kittenish" is spot on . I hope plenty of posters continue to share their happy memories of The Maggie Years , as we approach that momentous day of celebration..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windsor 2,143 Posted May 3, 2009 However , "kittenish" is spot on . I hope plenty of posters continue to share their happy memories of The Maggie Years They were certainly happy years for me. But then I was only aged 0-3 years, and only really lived through her downfall... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terminator 13 Posted May 4, 2009 BBC Radio 4's The Thatcher Years. (6 mins 35 secs). The ending is disappointing - there's no lingering shot of her blubbering in her car, leaving Downing Street. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBC parliament channel is running the whole 1979 election, as if it wasn't painful the first time round. Fascinating stuff though, the country was split down the middle right at the off. Peregrine Worsthorne's comments about the country being divided during Thatcher's premiership was prophetic... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graaaaaar 0 Posted June 30, 2009 Maggie is home again. Doesn't look like she has a clue whats going on. Doddering a bit, but I'd say there's a couple of years left in her yet. She'll drop out of public view pretty quickly now though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grande Pablo 96 Posted August 6, 2009 Great site that will assist one of our favorite subject at work - celebrity death!

A contact at the Beeb suggests they've been dusting off Maggie's obituary this week - do they know something not in the public domain? Congratulations Grande Pablo on such a tantalising first post. If Maggie goes this week or next this post will go down in DL folklore. Of course if she hangs on another year or more your name will be forever associated with deathlist timewasters and you will trudge the forums for all eternity with the DL mark of Cain on your reputation. No one shall speak of it but all will know and you will slither from thread to thread like a slimy worm and those who see your posts will say: "Yea, there goes the slimy worm who bore false witness as we thirsted and grovelled for news of her Thatcherness." Or summat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or summat. LOL - hear-hear. So often of late we can stick a list together of our best guestimates and come back with very little to show for our efforts. It not too difficult to list our picks under headings "This week, next week, sometime, never". But for me, Mrs T exists half way between the latter two. If I don't pick her then I'm sure she will die within the year and each time I list her I've always had utter dread that the old dear will provide me no points. Now to have this "news" fills me with some glee when I had little to no hope again. Where there is discord, may we bring harmony. Where there is error, may we bring truth. Where there is doubt, may we bring faith. And where there is despair, may we bring hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Crossed 33 Posted August 12, 2009 Great site ... A contact at the Beeb suggests they've been dusting off Maggie's obituary this week - do they know something not in the public domain? Surely there are plenty of journalists in every news organization who just enjoy sprucing up MT's obit; the journalistic equivalent of having a w@nk in the toilets in their lunch break. Something I've never done. Although I have imagined what I'll say when MT dies. Nice quote btw RA, made me lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tuber Mirum 119 Posted August 14, 2009 The government has just replied to an online petition I signed a while back, against a state funeral for her Thatchiness on account of her support for Pinocet and her general inhumanity to her fellow beings. Probably not a sign of her impending demise since they usually reply after a set time, but for the record here's what they said: In the event of the death of any former Prime Minister, the Government is responsible for liaising with the family and representatives of the deceased about arrangements for a suitable service of remembrance, including any administrative support from the Government. For reasons which we hope will be understood, it would not be appropriate to make any comment about detail of any discussions. Which is more or less saying "we'll do as we please, so bugger you you ignorant bunch of leftie scum" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We can therefore feel justified in walking past the poor naive clipboarders hanging around our local pedestrianized thoroughfares as indeed our signatures are not worth the paper they are written on.
