Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Labour's David Lammy: "When I was growing up my mum relied on tax credits. Tonight in opposing the Welfare Bill I voted for millions of people who do the same".
Tax credits were introduced in 2003.
David Lammy was born in 1972.
That means Lammy was 31 when tax credits were introduced.

Hays,
How many siblings or half-siblings does he have.
Perhaps you can scrape a little more muck for Lynton to use!
Marvellous when a PR agent writes the UK's PM's speeches!
