It's like Brokeback Mountain with you two. The quicker you both go camping for the weekend and get it over with the better for us all on bgafd!
And everyone know that if you need decking you sort it out when the weather's more reliable. You DO NOT want decking when it's raining.

"It's like Brokeback Mountain with you two".
Do try to use your own analogies, Samuel.

As for me, Jimbo is just someone to have a good laugh at, like one of those mindless TV comedies.
I suspect your love for the Cleggster which seems to have ebbed away like the winter storms in recent months was far more meaningful.
Cheers

PS Do you share my joy at the news that Nick Clegg will be out and about explaining how wonderful the NHS reforms are over the next few weeks? Should result in the death knell of that flagship reform, then!

Oh, it wasn't an analogy !laugh!

I've not really given it much thought, David. I have other interests.

Re: Samuel
Now I know you regard yourself as a bit of a grammar buff, but really!
An analogy is a comparison of certain similarities between things which are otherwise unlike.
Now the two cowboys in Brokeback Mountain and you and Cleggie are obviously unlike, unless you have secretly been going riding with the Cleggster in the great outdoors in the US.
But I thought where the similarity lies is in the love that you felt for the Cleggster, as evidenced on this forum in the run-up to the last election, which mirrored the feelings between the two cowboys.

Your reply
"I've not really given it much thought, David. I have other interests"
All I can say Sam, is that I am glad you have picked yourself up after the disappointment post-May 2010 and moved on. As a prize, a copy of Gloria Gaynor's I will Survive is on its way to your gaff as we speak.
In Gloria's immortal words
"Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I'd crumble
you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive"
Cheers

Before you reply Sam
Remember
"One good analogy is worth three hours discussion."
so I will leave you to offer your grammatical analysis unchallenged by my good self!
Cheers

Err, yeah. My saying it wasn't an analogy was a satirical way of saying your relationship with Jim is indeed real. Sorry you missed the humour!

I'm glad I've moved on too, David. It's a pity you haven't.

Wonderful! Thanks for that.
Of course there is absolutely no connection with Dave Spart and myself, is there? !wink!.
I remember a long time ago knowing a couple who were in the Socialist Worker party. They shared the same house as me and would give me a lengthy lecture over dinner on the iniquities of the capitalist system and that marxist leninism was the only thing that could provide a solution. They went to SWP meetings religiously, to use a phrase. And made regular attempts to "convert" me which I resisted.
Anyway after about 3 months of this, the lectures ceased. I asked why and without any sense of irony they explained "Oh we stopped going to the meetings. We got fed up with people being nasty to us!"
It's a funny, old world politics!
Cheers
