I looked at that ...Straightjackets 'R' us.<br /><br />I looked at that poster and it has done nothing but hardened my resolve to buy my kids a nice cream cake each as an Easter treat.<br /><br />FFS.<br /><br />I thank the Lord on this Holy weekend that my parents weren't the kind of muppets that these meddling do-gooders clearly are.<br /><br />And I'm having chips for lunch. Because I can. And I'm having a fag afterwards, and plenty of coffee, and tonight I will go to the pub and drink myself stupid on Stowford Press, and eat pork scratchings.<br /><br />My father told me once that if you give up drink, smokes, women and fun you won't live any longer. But it will <b>seem</b> like forever.<br /><br />He's 80.

Either the government is routinely ignoring the science, or likes to spend our money on frightening us for some other reason. Ignorant or malignant? I don't fancy either, thanks.scorpy66https://www.blogger.com/profile/03247103615415989789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-71851938735650142072010-04-01T09:26:04.879+01:002010-04-01T09:26:04.879+01:00I suppose these stories make everyone realise how ...I suppose these stories make everyone realise how easy it is to cut government spending without cutting frontline jobs.Letters From A Toryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14612766550608940053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-82561584841321332182010-04-01T07:07:16.481+01:002010-04-01T07:07:16.481+01:00We're not too bad at cricket and.. um.. that g...We're not too bad at cricket and.. um.. that game that you play with a bat and ball and some stumps.. err..BTShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06329822079511033338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-76111021874738005302010-03-31T22:19:42.969+01:002010-03-31T22:19:42.969+01:00I suggest Snot Picker will delay the election unti...I suggest Snot Picker will delay the election until June.

Since the object of the exercise is to prop up the advertising and meeja industries, where the Right Sort of People (TM) work, it matters little what the advertisements say.
