    Certainly funny to outsiders, but if it were my wife I would be having a word...

    On a night out in Preston once, with the husband and a couple of others, and his wife came out too. She got so wasted that she slept all the way home in the taxi, unconscious really, and one of her teddies was peeping out for the whole journey. I brought it to hubby's attention to allow her some dignity, and he just shrugged it off saying "Just let her sleep"

    From a distance it may seem amusing, but believe it or not this lack of respect for his wife fell way below the standards of decency I like to see in friends, and we lost touch soon after.
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    All this royal guff getting on your last nerve again?

    I have no opinion about this, one way or the other. In fact, I'd never heard of "Baby Sussex" until you mentioned it! I had to Google it. Clearly I'm (unintentionally) avoiding watching and reading the same cack you're punishing yourself with Been no mention of it on "Game of Thrones"

    Less telly* and newspapers + more music playing = happier times!

    * One Show! Or anything to do with gardening or cookery.

    My VCR has packed up, and not being interested in buying another machine, have just thrown out 40-odd video cassettes.

    Fortunately most of the titles are still available on VCD and Blu-Ray.

    I'd never heard of it either and also had to google although 'baby shark' came up first which is also a thing apparently. Anyway good to see Marco has had a change of heart and is now actively promoting the Royals on the site

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    What do expect to see on breakfast television, a documentary about the Carthaginians?


    only interesting thing that ever happened on breakfast tv was Frank Bough getting done for coke and hookers. And that was years ago.

    Yerse, I just lurves 'em (especially the sickening underground peadophile rings, some of the major royals are involved in).............almost as much as I do the chinless wonders in Westmonster, government corruption, and the insidious existence of 'the establishment'
