Boris Johnson - London Mayor!!

[Filterlab]

Good outburst Rob. Seems a bit unfair to coats but the sentiment is good. I reckon Londoners are fed up with being charged for everything and seeing little back for their money. Personally I just wish that part of the handover involved the outgoing mayor being burnt in public. Or maybe torn apart by 2 of those bendy buses. Maybe the remains could be buried in the foundations of the Olympic village. Who cares as long as the lying prick disappears in to oblivion.

You speak the truth my friend.

Sorry for outburst at coats, they are useful and a valuable contributor to our society.

It does look as if this discussion on COATS is nearly OVER.

Fascinating garment, a coat. You can have it over (as above), or under.

Even between, as in ENTRECOAT (poetic licence !)

It can be a coat of peace, as in DOVECOAT (!!!)

It is strong enough to cross gaps, as in COATBRIDGE ( Nr. Glasgow), or to be worn in a Somerset village.

But much better to drink as a COAT DE RHONE (!!!)

Upon reflection, Rob, maybe you should have stuck with the original!!!

Apologies for the above drivel, but my brain hurts after wading through the quasi-vitriolic , blow by blow diatribe on valve amps now running to umpteen pages. Shoot-out at the J.C. Corral would be more like it.

Anyway, good luck to Blue Boy Boris, and good riddance to Ken Dead Brick

I've heard arguments between my children, when they were 6 and 3 and on a long car journey, that were more logical and coherent.

Still, I guess with valves, things are bound to get a bit heated.

Indeed, Iain.

Most arguments tend to be push-pull, but one can generally win the single ended variety more easily.
