Ah, it seems so long ago since I was last here. Still, not much has happened, has it? Eh? Oh, well...
One thing I did note was the the Leader Of Her Majesty's Opposition, Mr Tony Cameron (or was it Mr David Blair, the Prime Minister?

Such admonitions are always welcome from people who have never had the chance to see the opposite side. Although personally, I've always rather enjoyed the quote from the great Steven Patrick Morrisey: "There's more to life than books you know, but not much more..."
