So, let's bung them all in there too silenced and too mortified to do anything.<br /><br />Two birds, one stone springs to mind.Benjamin.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10774684061156727388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6153845628469776909.post-13136588148904292952010-12-08T14:57:10.898+00:002010-12-08T14:57:10.898+00:00It is a charade - a Potemkin village orchestrated ...It is a charade - a Potemkin village orchestrated by the university and its pet SU.The Plashing Volehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13021407602157515927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6153845628469776909.post-80292019323394585822010-12-08T14:49:30.446+00:002010-12-08T14:49:30.446+00:00I'm considering turning up for the news broadc...I'm considering turning up for the news broadcast live from the SU- only to berate and insult every one of them. I cannot stand the pretentiousness of the 'sit-in' discussion yet as many of the members are associates of mine and some of the ladies I admire, I must be seen to accept their charade. <br /><br />Personally I'd rather storm a Tory building and spend the night there.Benjamin.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10774684061156727388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6153845628469776909.post-70758100629352303272010-12-08T14:38:38.262+00:002010-12-08T14:38:38.262+00:00You're absolutely right.

She was on the panel on the episode of QT I was in the audience for, and amusingly she's about 4ft.<br /><br />Gotta disagree with you over your first sentence though Voley.
