What's the betting David Cameron tries to blur the rebate issue next year ie - "Where's our 2105 rebate?" (I believe he really is that dishonestly awful.) I think we can rely on UKIP to expose this for the sham that it is. Fabulous timing, opens popcorn. Nigel Farage ‏@Nigel_Farage 6m6 mi...

Totally off topic.Couldn't be more off topic if I tried. Has anyone a recipe for duck and apricot curry?Been looking around but no success. Not tried that but sounds scrummy. I can find a beef & apricot recipe so couldn't you just substitute the duck for the beef ? Good idea. I ate it years ago...

She is PK - she very definitely is. My local vets are pretty dire.

Well,morning all. This is funny(or maybe it reflects my sense of humour),but a Japanese whisky has been named the best whisky in the world,with no whisky from Scotland making the top 5.A whisky from England(didn't know we even made it)was the european no 1.

Well done Sky.Treat yourself to something nice when you get the backdated money.

It's sad that we're even talking about who might replace Miliband although the point has been made that he never really had close supporters at the highest rank apart from John Denham, who's on his way out. Burnham is, for me, the only possibility. I think if it were anyone else among those who hav...

Happy Birthday Rebecca

Looks as though Johan Lamont, after having screwed up running Scottish Labour has decided to have a go at bringing the whole party down. Well done. Brown for First Minister. Absolutely.Brown would be the best antidote to the snp,oh,how good that would be,Brown and Miliband. edited to add,good morni...

Dave probably hopes to delay payment until May,so it will be another problem to pass on to Labour.

Anyone been to Cuba ? An old friend of my other half is there working and raving about it, sending pics. Have always had a romantic dream about it, a la Che & Fidel, and latterly Buena Vista Social Club and other amazing music. We can travel again now we've lost our little cat...am tempted by H...

…. which is odd because it's petrol and food that have fallen most. Obviously my lack of a degree in economics means I can't see why a warm Autumn means you spend less on food and petrol. The latter is probably that if you get a cold day, more people take the car to work/school run etc. Food, I'm l...

Rebecca

Oh well,no doubt we will all be urged to make this coming Christmas 'the best one ever',i.e buy loads of shiny tat that we don't need/want/afford.
Followed buy enough food to feed an army because the supermarkets will be shut for two days.
Should improve the figures.

Burnham/Labour will have to call a moratorium on all this when they take charge - it's going to take quite some sorting out - but surely it is indefensible on any level of medical philosophy that a 'diagnosis' has a financial inducement? Absolutely. I don't recall an instance before when an actual ...

I was wondering about that in the kitchen just now.If the Greens were offered a coalition with Labour,would they say,' oh no,we hate Labour' or jump at the chance of being in govt?

Yes it was, it was another attempt to scare people who support the Greens, NHA, or even TUSC to vote for Labour out of fear of the Tory party. At no point is there even a smidgen of policy to entice voters. That is the problem. If you want green voters, have green policies. Otherwise stop the drip ...
