    Now, we don't want everyone stereotyping Canada as getting snow in mid-May! :-) Some of us are only getting the usual cold rain and high winds!

    All the animals come out at night - whores, skunk pussies, buggers, queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick, venal.

    Only in the South East of England could a department as grandly titled as "Emergency Planning" start pissing themselves over a bit of rain. If there's a nuclear war or meteorite hit I'm seeing a Corpral Jones style flap.

    It's not even effing raining.

    If you look carefully, you can see a few MP's on their yachts that have been paid for on expenses.

    ledge is dodgy enough already, mate ; - )

    Always used to be on in a double bill with Midnight Express (crap film) for some reason.

    Watched it loads of times at all nighters at the old Scala in the 80s. Talk about all the weirdos coming out at night.

    Nah, paranoia inducing stuff for 70s hippies worried about their stash of leb red on the mantle piece. And in the book he does swing the other way with the bloke in the showers.
