What, he told you to sit back at put your feet up for 4 years ?

That's not a plum tree, that's a Laurel

In which case sit back, put your feet up, and wait for about 4 years. The other key thing with plum trees is to regularly prune them, or you will find that the fruit is there, but out of reach.

Are those the ones where you pass if spell your name correctly ?

Are they the same variety ? Are they self-fertile ? If not, do they flower at the same time ? If all three answers are no, then unless there are others planted nearby, you might not get anything. Also, they can take up to 4 years to start fruiting.

Not being a 'whizzkid', but on trying to rationalise the intricacies of the SLH / PLC arrangement and it's relationship to points deductions; Whilst it may be smoke and mirrors financially, surely the FL can only deal with, and respond to, the football club, as that is it's member organisation, and any deduction has to be based on the viability of that entity. As far as I can see, those PLC clubs that have had deductions have suffered because the PLC / club itself became insolvent, such as Leeds. Don't bite my head off if I am wrong.

If we finish above the relegation places it will be automatically enforced against this year's final table. If we don't it goes onto the start of next season.

If it is an April Fool, then I think there's a goin' to be a lyncin' when the perp is outed.

I will cry if it is true

I did not avoid your question, though the fact that the entire posting was replaced between readings did throw me As I hope my response implied, if I am a traditional 'conservative', ( and I deliberately use the lowercase 'c' ), then it is up to the Tories to return to their 'traditional' perspective, at which point they give themselves a chance. I do not, however, believe that either the current Conservative party, nor Labour, can lay claim to the heritage outlined in your epistle.

The Labour party nicking Tory policies- where have we seen that before ? So, when the Tory party come up with a manifesto that matches the ideals they seem to have held previously, but now seem to have forsaken, they may well earn my vote

But would you accept the principle that those who can afford to pay a little more as a contribution to society, ( tax, etc to ensure the welfare system, NHS, etc, can be sustained ), should do so ?

But you see, I myself, ( and I would have thought Bridge To Far and quite a few others on here ), would similarly classify ourselves as hard-working types who have laboured, ( no pun intended ), to improve our lot, and that of our families, having 'got off our arses', gained qualifications, and worked our way up to senior, comparitively well paid positions. This has not, however, altered our basic view that the core principles of Socialism are intrinsically correct, and form a much better basis for a humane, inclusive, society.

So in that case we can forget about charities, foreign aid, and hospices, and start euthanasia for those who might lower the genetic strength of the spcies ? I know that is not what you mean, but it is a logical outcome of that train of thought. ( Mind you, why should Shrek Rooney and that harridan Coleen be allowed to breed, surely that is an evolutionary dead-end ? )

Maybe it's time to remove the word ALTRUISM from the dictionary ?

So all we are left with is the politics of greed :mad: Loadsamoney and the yuppies inherit the Earth

According to ALL the eye witnesses at the inquest, J C DeM was not given any warning - the armed officers, who did not identify themselves, rushed onto the train, pushed him to the floor and fired several bullets into his head at very close range. The witnesses all believed the armed men to be terrorists until after the killing had occurred.

But the rules say his constituency is NOT an 'inner London' one; they are the only seats to which this allowance does not apply.

It only shocks Daily Mail readers because they only do such things on Sunday night, always with the lights off, and only in the one approved position - and they NEVER enjoy it.

Named Blondi in tribute to another well known GS ?

I don't discriminate, get shot of the whole rotten bunch, blue, red, or yellow, and start again once WE have set up a new set of rules for them operate by. 'Traditional' Labour supporters do feel slightly disenfranchised by Bliar and Brown, they moved to the right to chase the Daily Mail reading middle-Englanders. I am slightly suprised that there don't seem to be many Tories feeling their right-wing agenda isn't being served as Cameron moves his bunch similarly close to the centre to chase the same minority swing voters, leaving them to follow Stanley and consider the UKIP / BNP option. I am all in favour of proportional representation; if only 70% of the elctorate vote, 30% of the seats at Westminster should be left vacant.

Started in 1981 outside RAF Greenham Common.

In reality, Stanley is a 43 year-old former crustie, who spent his teenage years protesting at Greenham Common, hasn't had a bath for years ( because he doesn't need one ), and lives off the mould on top of the yoghurts he pulls out of Sainsbury's rubbish bins. And he only ever votes for the Green Party.

I know of a rozzer who saved up his overtime during the miners' strike and bought himself a new house for cash.
