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.

The last two cartoons sums up the effects of present tory policies!

do they?
more interestingly of course is the public face of merkel in supporting juncker and behind the scenes where she is as keen as the others to have a more progressive president

Well Lord Ashcrofts polls in the key marginals suggest otherwise. labour lowest lead as been 4% over the Tories and last week was 9%.

Gove and May cant have helped the Tories out indeed you could say its a gift to Nigel and UKIP.

Manuel,

Are you sharing her pillows now?

A state education should celebrate all religions equally. Churches, synagogues and mosques can teach the devout
When I was a teenager I was fascinated by the Jewish boarding school a few fields away from our house. The local children barely ever saw any orthodox pupils leave their citadel. Occasionally they would ask us to buy them pork scratchings at the local garage, which they would eat illicitly by the river.
Theirs was a different world. Girls and boys didn’t swim together. They couldn’t even turn on a light bulb on Saturdays; they performed no Shakespeare because he was considered antisemitic; and they had hours of Hebrew each week.
Still I rather wanted to go there: it

If you want the rest of the article its a quid a week to sign up.

There were quite a lot of boys who wanted to get into neighbouring girls schools also.

I think there is a lot of huffing and puffing going on about some "state" education!

Stan,

Very good.

My bones felt warm again.

Another 6 weeks and will be back there.


Max,

You seem to enjoy France.

Did you write you have a camper van?

If so, there is a good Camping site Bois de Boulogne Paris.

Transport from site to Metro stations Place Porte de la Maillot or La Defense and walk down the Champ etc.

Carnets sold on site.

Easy walking distance for most.

Also, it has a decent restaurant on site. (Never eaten at it, but others say it is good.)

Good site for short stays in Paris!
