...here it is again.

Harmony on the DJ/Jim front and all it took was the possible collapse of one of the world's major press empires. Well done lads. It was worth the wait. Never thought I'd see it in my lifetime. I've no doubt normal service will be resumed soon.

You will find DJ and I are in harmony over quite a wide range of topics including, dare I say, central heating condensor boilers and their failings!

Andy, I think the topic of politics is now best avoided for me. DJ is welcome to have his soapbox and the research that he patiently does to support his views is laudable. I'm sort of a bit more, "Hands on" about these sort of things, a bit more, "Why can't we just string the bastards up?"
Arguing about politics is sort of futile in my opinion. It's a bit like the crazed arguments Frank Thring and I have had in the past over the different genres of porn, ie what is best, British porn or Europorn. It got to the point that I didn't from where the next attack would happen. I could be walking down a street and Frank would absail down a building holding a kitchen knife and then leap on to my shoulders screaming, "Death to British porn! Die Jimbo die, Tora!Tora!Tora!" and try to stab me in the head. Luckily, his orderlies were always in hot pursuit and always managed to restrain him and bundle him into a little white van and drive off, but he always managed to escape again! Now we are the best of friends, but I do hide the cutlery when he's around and AVOID THE TOPIC OF WHAT PORN IS BEST!wink!
So it is this spirit, I now declare that I am standing to one side and will allow DJ to express his views without fear of attacks by me! Look, I didn't even mention that it was John Prescott who forced everyone in the UK to install condensing
central heating boilers in their houses, which are now breaking down!
Seriously though, I have too many things to do at the moment without getting
involved in these arguments. So I gladly hand over the rostrum to DJ!

My IPad loves goig into "Auto delete" and also inserting mystery letters into links I post, so they don't work. Here's the proper, "What its like living in the same city as Frank Thring" link:
