#1 "The BBC ought to have questioned the merit of putting a partisan statement concerning Marx into the mouth of a children's hero. Good of the BBC to rescue Marx from the scrap-heap of history."

And this is surprising, how?

#2 The new series of Dr Who has been cringe-worthy pretty much start to finish (of what I've seen). Self-satisfied, insusbtantial, achingly right-on and dull; it's as though it was written by Cherie Blair.

#4 Thank you Mrs. Davis - I now have the rather horrendous mental picture of Cherie Blair showing a lot of skin.....shudder.

#6 Harry, that link is showing a 'tripod' generic image. I think that's a good thing...

#12 I've knocked back a couple of French stubbies. I felt it was the least I could do. Vive la France!

#14 Saint Cervois(?) - from Sainsbury's - have to admit I only scanned the label when I bought them and thought they might be Spanish, but that's not the point... I'll dig out an old bottle of French plonk tomorrow and raise a glass or two to the French voters. (I imagine on the bottle it'll say "ideally served with snails, amphibian extremities, and haughty sneers". ;) )
