Yes.

She's riding a cock horse to Banbury Cross.

From there, its only 20 miles to Witney.

But Aaron's pussy looks more healthy than Alex's.

Even on a diet of austerity.

There's something very satisfying about writing with a pencil on a string.

It was fun. But I gave my hands a nice wash with anti-bac afterwards.

Germy pencils...nice ;)

Well, I waited for many weeks but when there was action there was not just an e-mail from the UKIP candidate this morning but another one from her this afternoon. It gives an interesting insight into life on the hustings: "My apologies for not replying sooner...... I had 27 pages of e-mails to get through".

...and that's it - All over bar the counting! :O

If the exit poll is correct then we're getting another Tory/LibDem coalition.

One wonders what will happen to Miliband's stone tablet?

Ipsos MORI/GfK NOP exit poll.

Conservatives: 316 (up from 302)
Labour: 239 (down from 256)
Liberal Democrats: 10 (down from 56)
SNP: 58 (up from 6)
UKIP: 2 (steady)

All that requires is for the LDs to lose one more and it is a Tory-Right Wing Ulster Coalition. Having said as much, the LD figure won't be that low. And the fact that 316 plus 10 equals 326 - the figure for a majority - is too contrived. It would be interesting to hear if Farage's is one of UKIP's 2 seats.

Keep in mind there are about four Sinn Fein seats which they never take.
So that might reduce the figure needed by two.

The downside of this in particular model is that it will empower the barmy right of the Tory party. The last five years, Cameron didn't need them, as the LibDems provided sufficient buffer.
If these figures hold up, then they will command a lot of clout.

Well, there you go. You risked us all with that nightmare, Gussie, when you voted for them. Someone ring up BBC Comedy. Ask them to prepare the farewell party. It's the end of free ish comedy for all.

Why, Horseradish, are the Nazi storm troopers about to take over the country? :P

Unfortunately we might not be so fortunate. It could be swivel eyed neo-liberalists. There really is something very wrong with a country when in spite of feelings totally to the contrary for five years, prayers are being said across the land for the re-election of Nick Clegg as an odd sort of saviour.

Yep, Miliband fancied himself as Moses.

And now it might be Cleggy who's the Messiah! Angelic
