Given that JRM dresses like an undertaker leading a hearse, I don't think they'll even be that quick

Oooh, get her ! Ok, take out the pint of milk and replace with sending the driver to put gallons of fuel in the tank of the departmental car. It's just indicative of the regression to the halcyon days of the 1950's that JRM yearns for.

I see that JRM has issued an edict on words and phrases that his staff should not use, and that they must use Imperial measures. I wonder how the tea boy is going to manage when asked to go out to buy a pint of milk and a pound of sugar, and pay for it in shillings and pence.

In Ralph we trust.

More likely it is until Boris has to find someone to blame for missing his deadline.

Who pronounces hyperbole "quinoa" ?

If Boris is half the politician he thinks he is it should be the easiest half hour of his working week.

I look forward to posting that again on 1st November.

We haven't left yet.

"Purely so that we go back to ruling our own country," she explains. Which country, I ask. "England," she replies instinctively, before quickly adding "UK, UK". She feels the need to clarify because "I can hear your Scottish voice"."

Gove is the new Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster. Nobody asked us locals if we wanted him !

Priti Patel, who last year suggested that we might use the threat of food shortages to persuade Ireland to drop the backstop. And at least Raab didn't get Transport.

England could have done with Vince making his usual 25 run contribution.

Guy Verhofstadt "looks forward to alleviating Mr Johnson’s concerns regarding the imminent accession of Turkey to the EU, following the claims of the Leave campaign, whilst explaining the EU has no rules on the packaging of kippers in the UK.”

Boris is about to find out just how difficult to manage the Conservatives really are.

From 36:1 to 85ao, against 75mph bowling. Starc won't even need a run up.

Tweedledum and Tweedledummer.

I give him 'til Oct 31st.

Over 50% inflation in 2 seasons since Puel ? For a club of our size and commercial power that's something we could never hope to keep up with.

Talking

With Potch, Koeman, and Puel we finished in the top 8 four seasons running, and without spending £20 million on a player.

That's the one I cribbed from. I also like the one where the person responding to the call tells the scammer that he has contacted a CIA base, and his location's map coordinates have been marked, and a Reaper drone despatched.
