  1. I hope this doesn't distract the debate tomorrow night from focusing on the key issue, i.e. the bare-faced lie that is "Brown as economic saviour".
  2. Same thing in Newcastle with the Lib Dems, I suppose, though I think Newcastle North will go yellow this time. Probably not the others though.
  3. I wouldn't mind, but the local council wards are safe Green too. The only vote this year where I have any kind of power is for the elected Mayor of Lewisham. And he doesn't have much in the way of power, so...
  4. It basically tells me to fuck off.
  5. Ahh, Mount Ararat. The national symbol of Armenia and home of the gods in Armenian mythology. Even though it's in Turkey. Poor buggers.
  6. This is going to sound thoroughly lame, but do look to see if there's a decent one for your neighbourhood/part of town. I say that only because the mung bean munchers around here run http://brockleycentral.blogspot.com/ and it's really rather good for what it is.

    Gawsh, has this really not been mentioned yet? http://twitter.com/dianainheaven
  8. Fine by me, as long as they're willing to put up the deposits to stand a candidate in every single English and Welsh constituency too. Thought not.
  9. Mine is a Green Party target seat.
  10. Because precisely fuck-all works without them?
  11. If it could wait until mid-June, that'd be terrific. Love, Meenzer xOx
  12. Alice In Wonderland. Canny enough for a weekend evening's light entertainment really. Saw it in "3D", which took some of the shine off it - pointless much?
  13. Wandered across Trafalgar Square on the way to the pub earlier and they had a big stage up for the St. George's Day celebrations. As we passed, a rhythm 'n' blues band started playing "All Shook Up". It made me proud to be English.

    Redundancies

    What industry do you work in? If you don't mind me asking. Banking - I work in IT for the London branch of a German Landesbank (regional state bank). The bank asked its shareholders for a capital injection to cover toxic losses and a condition of that was an EU backed restructuring. As I think we established once, my lot translates a good amount of your lot's stuff. So if you ever are affected by the cutbacks - and touch wood you won't be, obviously - just let me know and I'll start inserting abusive footnotes and anti-Kraut comments in the hidden text.
  15. Amen. Pickled Onion or Beef Munch? I'd have thought Meenzer would go for Beef Munch tbh. Betraying the brotherhood I realise, but pickled onion all the way.
  16. Pretty even I'd say. Cameron stronger than last time and I can imagine him having been convincing if you like what he was saying, Brown pretty meaty on policy for the most part, Clegg a bit lightweight but largely decent given he was under attack far more following the first debate.
  17. Couldn't really care less about it one way or the other, but obviously it should be on an equal footing and all that. And Guinness Day can sod off, of course.
  18. Anyone who visited me when I was in Germany had to bring Twiglets, Monster Munch or a jar of two of decent curry paste or they'd be sleeping on the pavement.
  19. What kind of money are we talking? Oh, nothing ridiculous like the article mentions, at least in isolation - £50 to £100 per item, that kind of thing. Cumulatively it's not a bad rainy day fund to have at your (semi-)disposal though, assuming no drop-off in the propensity of the aforementioned pink pounders to waste their money on useless rubbish.
