  2. That's the trouble, they are too busy choosing the cheese and the wine and what they will eat next that they let everything else go to pot. Just kidding, well not completely.

  3. Agree with Jmb too busy with self interest for governing anything else!

  5. Well anyway, that was my contribution to yesterday. Welshcakes' was to play all nine drawn-out verses and choruses of la Marsellaise whilst be stood and I asked if that was the last verse. Not that I don't love the tune, mind.

  6. Perhaps people should take stock of how many varieties we produce here in Britain - we have over 700 varieties according to the British Cheese Board!
