    Ditto; thought the news about the horse was bad enough, this is just unbelievable. Desperately, desperately sad. RIP, Campbell

    Oh, I'm sure you could turn her if you put your mind to it Clive; bet she's right up for a bit of plain speaking :lol:

    What Are You Listening To Now?

    Gin Blossoms - Congratulations, I'm Sorry and New Miserable Experience - seriously underrated band and singer's voice to die for. Their 'jolly melancholy' sound is reminiscent of side 2 of The Queen Is Dead

    Willie Carson

    Wish I'd come up with that final sentence. Deadly accurate, too.

    What are you backing Today?

    Seemed to be a serious gamble on Quattro, who looked as if he'd been laid out for the race and on a nice mark. Has he fallen out of love with the game a bit?

    Poor Liz

    Not for a minute disagreeing with your feelings, frustration and desire to help - I'm sure all on here agree on that. Just can't see any realistic options.

    Poor Liz

    You can do bugger all without some form of acquiesence from Russia and China, sadly. Military intervention is desirable, but totally impractical. Conflating this atrocity with the Jubilee is just plain silly.

    Poor Liz

    Can we only concentrate on one thing at once then? Syria's a horror story, but I'm not sure what we can do about it, except to say that our hearts go out to the people.

    Nothing to do with mad Gord, then. Of course, the banks made him go on that crazy spending spree; silly of me

    Epsom Derby 2012

    Wonder if he gave Clare B a lyrical waxing? Maybe why her raspberry ripples used to stick out so far :blink:

    Poor Liz

    What austerity? BBC jargon for slowing down the growth in public spending. A lot of the Royal family are byond parody, but the Queen is a notable exception and deserves all the fuss going.

    Fiscal Compact Treaty

    Brilliant.

    Favourite TV Comedy

    Agree entirely on MBB, Bread and Shooting Stars. Also hated The Young Ones: utter dross. Rik Mayall also ruined Blackadder whenever he gatecrashed it.

    Favourite TV Comedy

    Apart from Grandad, who had a distinct touch of the kiddie fiddler about him. Uncle Albert might have been a caricature, but he was a big improvement nonetheless.
