[Romantic Old Bird]

Graeme, although we are mostly on TIBB to have fun, I think it is only right and proper that we should acknowledge the perilous state we find ourselves in the world at the moment.

I have to admit I had an insane outburst of laughter myself when I heard on the news that protests against going to war were being held around the world in Washington, San Francisco, Berlin and..............Bradford!

That is not to belittle Bradford of course, or to make light of this awful situation.


I am a modest subscriber to the Labour party and was telephoned the other night with a request to send a little more each month.

At the end of the conversation he asked if I had any messages for him to pass back to Tony. By Golly, did I! It turned out like the Benecol/double glazing advert - he was trying to get away from me, but I had the bit between my teeth. Poor soul.

The gist of it was that I didn't want us to blindly follow giddy-up George W into oblivion. It's scary out there.



By the way Graeme, nice piccie!!



Looking more like your mum!
