3. Rearviewmirror - Pearl Jam
4. Creep - Stone Temple Pilots
5. Burst Noel - Malcom Middleton

I stopped watching Newsnight after I was laid up in bed after the car crash.

This is what most dictionaries have about politicians ...

pol·i·ti·cian
n.
1.
a. One who is actively involved in politics, especially party politics.
b. One who holds or seeks a political office.
2. One who seeks personal or partisan gain, often by scheming and maneuvering: "Mothers may still want their favorite sons to grow up to be President, but . . . they do not want them to become politicians in the process" John F. Kennedy.
3. One who is skilled or experienced in the science or administration of government.

I believe dictionaries should carry this definition of politicians in future:

Politician ...
lying, theiving, cheating, manipulative, deceitful, dishonest, two-faced, insincere, untruthful, mendacious, double-dealing, false b*st*rds!

Especially when it comes to the female half of the Alexander Brothers whom I had the misfortune to be introduced to at Holyrood a couple of years ago. She comes across like a schemie sweetie-wifie trying to sell you dodgy DVDs!

hey at least gubby Ms Alexander has pushed independence forward Shocked

I don't think we've ever has as much media attention on this issue Wink

I'm fed up of politics as well, hardly watch any of the programmes. Was never a party person whilst a member of the SNP (now lapsed).

Anyway Banter is an escape from all that, I prefer to suffer BA instead Wink

Would you like a JCB to help you dig that hole you're digging, Carol?? Evil or Very Mad

RH ... have you ever had a schemie sweetie-wife try to sell you dodgy DVDs in the street?? Clue: stay out of places like Pilton, Easterhouse, Menzieshill, Bucksburn and Raploch.

That hole is going to have a purpose one day! Don't plant flowers. Keep a slab of granite handy. I'll see to the rest! Twisted Evil

hey BA you brighten up a dreary day, now that's a compliment!

I don't think I'll ever make a Percy Thrower, was planting sunflower plugs into pots last night and some were more than just leaning to the side.

RH, did you see the Iain Gray interview too?

Why did it give me the mental image of Gordon Brewer clubbing a seal? Very Happy

'Now, the sort of person we're looking for is an aggressive lout with the intelligence of a four-year-old and the sexual sophistication of a donkey.' Sounds like Macnumpty to me!

Carol, I'd much prefer the sound of a cat hung up by its tail outside a window and trying to stick to the panes of glass with its claws, than listen to anything you have to say.

RH ... I suspect you're not really good for anything, but people will laugh when you tumble down the stairs.

RH, didn't you just love it when Iain Gray tried showing off by sayihg he could do the interview in Portuguese if Brewer wanted it?

Oh, and BA, telling RH your plans isn't the smartest thing to do. But you'll learn that the hard way when the Scarlet Ninja Death Squad turns up in your bedroom! Very Happy

Is that who they were?? Dear, dear ... you'll have to better than that, MacNumpty. Baldrick and the wolves made very short work of them! Laughing

But are you sure you want to go down this old familiar road of tit for tat again?? My tats will beat your lot every time! Very Happy

No, BA, do keep up, that was the Crimson Sumurai Decoy Assault Team. Laughing

And while you might be proud of your tats, my tits are a thing of wonder.

They nest in a nearby birdhouse! Wink

RH there are females around! Wink

I think BA's been watching a scene from Corrie, where David pushes his mother down the stairs, apparently he's a bit off the rails as well.

Welcome back Mr Nasty!

Blackadder · 'Our Scotland' Fossil Joined: 28 Jul 2006 Posts: 4295

Yes ... there ARE a pair of tits, RH. You and Macnumpty-heid!

Just as well I'm a great admirer of magnificent boobs, isn't it?? Very Happy

Which reminds me ... must re-visit that site on breasts I saw briefly last Tuesday! Very Happy
