Ah!! Mary..just read in the general page.."no politics"..wonder if I can bring it up here...
anyway since you asked, to put the facts straight, the situation isnt very bright. The present Govt is a coalition, and its hung parliament always.So you can imagine the way it works, for the major time is spent on working out how to survive the allies threats.
Regarding the oppsition, well the picture remains same, only the names vary, for even they cant manage an absolute majority.And they have an extra drawback of the label,'HINDUTHVA"..party(like they have an edge ove religious side)..still things happen.:)..
and we remain cheerful.Thats the bottom line.
cheers

Hey Appy, this IS the site for politics, religion and all the other unmentionables. Good luck with your Gov and 'Keep Smiling...Be Happy...'One of the positives (touch wood) is the lack of violence accompanying political change. It COULD be a lot worse...

And here I was grumbling about Gordon Brown our P.M. (He reminds me of a dish-mop, half soaked, never washes away the scum that has been left in his wake), at least Tony Blair had charisma whilst destroying our health care/education system even further - Thanks Maggie Thatcher. Roll on the elections here so we can get someone in who can make a difference... although in reality who can, no endless pots of gold to hand out, no quick fixes and we are in the midst of a recession, although we are not allowed to say that word in case in creates panic! So we all whisper and pretend not to notice increases in fuel/food. Mind you our local pubs are always full so people are drinking away their misery while the sun is shining, a most pleasing hobby.

Bit of a moan there... back to my wine, a sexy little number, Chardonnay, chilled, all the way from Spain no less (I didn't ask it, in all fairness, the bottle that is, 'Are you from Spain?', it said so on the label)... What a gorgeous evening here in England, sun, warmth and blue skies.

England? Sun, warmth and blue skies? Which day was that???
We voted for change recently. Hopefully someone who cares about people, public health and education and won't demonise people escaping horrific circumstances. Bit early yet to judge, but he seems to be a bit teflony, a bit less than we thought we were getting. Still, 12 years in opposition is not good training for government. He can still prove worthwhile. Here's hoping!

A question that was posed today on the radio..."why aren't there any white-shelled eggs about any more?" and my response was "ye gads - it's true! I can't remember the last time i cracked open a white-shelled egg - where in godsname are they?"...followed by a lesser thought "does it matter?"

Here is an interesting fact. Did you know that when an egg is laid and whilst it is still damp you can wipe the colour off it. Once it is dried it is too late. Egg colour is from the breed of hen and in the scheme of things no it doesn't matter but it does make you wonder. But not that much... not at this time of night anyway.

so if I wanted white eggs i'd have to catch the egg as it was being laid and then rub? I can do this...well rather a friend can do this as he has chooks and supplies me with free range eggs...I'll tell him I want white eggs for a change... I don't handle chickens well, their feet creep me out.
Anyways thanks for the interesting fact, I knew someone would come through with the answer, somehow because it was you...the answer seems more specialler...x
re your turquoise (gee that's hard to spell) eggs, why don't you use a stencil on your eggs, one with solid circles so that you only have to use turquoise paint? otherwise you'd have to paint the whole egg turq...then splodge it with brown spots...double handling...

billy let me know if it works, the colour thing that is... thinking of a get out clause if it doesn't like, the egg man didn't catch the egg in time and then lied, the egg man is giving you old eggs, the egg man buys them from the supermarket and sells them to you... is that enough excuses do you think?
It is baking here, warm enough to fry an egg outside, sunny side up. Not sure about scramble though could be a tad tricky to eat off the table.

ARTHUR: Shhh! Knights, I bid you welcome to your new home. Let us
ride... to Camelot.
[singing]
We're knights of the round table
We dance when e'er we're able
We do routines and parlour scenes
With footwork impecc-Able.
We dine well here in Camelot
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot
[dancing]
We're knights of the Round Table
Our shows are for-mid-able
Though many times we're given rhymes
That are quite unsing-able
We not so fat in Camelot
We sing from the diaphragm a lot
[tap-dancing]
Oh we're tough and able
Quite indefatigable
Between our quests we sequin vests
And impersonate Clark Gable
It's a bit too loud in Camelot
I have to push the pram a lot.
ARTHUR: Well, on second thought, let's not go to Camelot -- it is
a silly place.
Right.

Girls, girls, girls.... the color of the egg depends on the breed of chicken, Some breeds lay white eggs, some brown, some green, some blue. I have found that crossing a dark brown egg breed with a green egg breed gives you a gorgeous olive green egg. I haven't been able to get turquoise eggs yet.

In the chat room this morning, the question was asked; 'where did everybody go?'.
An astute question needing an equally sagacious answer.
Those who read this particular forum page regularly might give it a go. Those who regularly post on this particular forum page might wait to see if everybody is, in fact, gone. I know I shall, and I doubt if I will be disappointed

Ah.. I am yet to be gone..but soon I shall..
'where did everybody go?'
they all have gone, to earn a quid
For they have tasks to do,
but the hunters persist
with a mission, the seers
they seek something
and do trail by to pursue their quest...

Hamlet's Cat's Soliloquy
from "Hamlet's Cat"
by William Shakespeare's Cat
To go outside, and there perchance to stay
Or to remain within: that is the question:
Whether 'tis better for a cat to suffer
The cuffs and buffets of inclement weather
That Nature rains on those who roam abroad,
Or take a nap upon a scrap of carpet,
And so by dozing melt the solid hours
That clog the clock's bright gears with sullen time
And stall the dinner bell. To sit, to stare
Outdoors, and by a stare to seem to state
A wish to venture forth without delay,
Then when the portal's opened up, to stand
As if transfixed by doubt.

To prowl; to sleep;
To choose not knowing when we may once more
Our readmittance gain: aye, there's the hairball;
For if a paw were shaped to turn a knob,
Or work a lock or slip a window-catch,
And going out and coming in were made
As simple as the breaking of a bowl,
What cat would bear the household's petty plagues,
The cook's well-practiced kicks, the butler's broom,
The infant's careless pokes, the tickled ears,
The trampled tail, and all the daily shocks
That fur is heir to, when, of his own free will,
He might his exodus or entrance make
With a mere mitten? ....

..... But that the dread of our unheeded cries
And scratches at a barricaded door
No claw can open up, dispels our nerve
And makes us rather bear our humans' faults
Than run away to unguessed miseries?
Thus caution doth make house cats of us all;
And thus the bristling hair of resolution
Is softened up with the pale brush of thought,
And since our choices hinge on weighty things,
We pause upon the threshold of decision.

I read this page but don't comment on it because I don't have the same grasp of language as a lot who do post here, and really don't have anything to add, especially as I don't even understand half of what is said!

147 visits since the 3:02 AM post yesterday and only nine posts in between. Remarkable.
Not being disappointed is sometimes a great disappointment. All those visits and still, the comments are from those who regularly posts herein and not a soul stepped in otherwise.
Gail's comment is as honest as a punch in the beezer. Nobody could possibly understand a lot of what gets said on this forum page. Except if you are a cat person, thank you André and ap.
