    I don't feel old. I don't feel anything until noon.

    It's the old story. Plod asks old man to accompany him to the station, old man asks what the charge is. Plod replies there's no charge, just he's afraid to go on his own.
    We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.

    In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

    What does he expect if he offers public criticism of Labour. Get the old reactionary away to Belmarsh, oh and send someone round to his house to confiscate any computer equipment, mobile phones and bank details. Put some pressure on his wife while you're there. They may both be racists.

    At an advanced age, one tends to go down very slowly and softly. All limp. I know.

    It's not a beret, it's a Police Helmet.

    That's not what they are talking about fool bwah, they are talking about the beret on the much-bemedalled one, not the hat on the bobby!
