Paddy, did you cry too when Thatcher was ousted? I recall every detail of that day with a heavy heart. The Kennedy assasination had nothing on Thatchers political demise.

Up the Empire!

Even I had a heavy heart that day, and I am not even a Brit.

Yup Paddy, I watched it. Not only am I a child of Thatcher, Im also a staunch Liverpool supporter! Dont worry, we'll get them on the return leg. We have to.

Anyway, back to Thatcher ...

Remember the days when she also doubled as President of the United States? Damn those were good years.

I know, I know. But the Ali Wantfakh Reesmahs'issa Duklap Ragha Waikheet* Stadium is a bloody tough place to go. Ask Leeds. They don't call it 'Welcome to Hell' for nothing.

I can't believe how many chances we missed!

Well someone had to run the country while Reagan's brain went walkabout**

* Remember Half-man, Half-biscuit?

** This is not a sick joke about Reagan's Alzheimer's, but a reference to the wonderfully irreverent Spitting Image (while it was still funny)

[Blades]

Oh god! I'd forgotten about Spitting Image. That used to be so funny. The "Reagen eating his own brains" sketch was a classic.

I think we better prepare ourselves for the Republican backlash..........

So, who was it came up with the joke:

Reporter (after a minor operation to remove a suspected cancerous lesion from the President's nasal organ): 'Mr. President, how are you feeling now after your procedure?'

Reagan: 'Well, it's no skin off my nose'

Laughed my tits off. A lot.
