erm...

something else came up.

Incidentally, when I saw there was a post on this thread I though it was about the original title.

the Question Time was on tonight.

Always enjoy Question Time, so it was great to see a YOB hold his own against the rest of the panel. Well done, Matt. And to see so many politically aware and astute young people (sorry if that sounds patronising - it's not meant to!). I didn't think they existed anymore.

Don't get conned, cj !

I was listening to a conversation of two of the Dorking Girls (Seniors), at training a couple of weeks ago, regarding rape.

Their idea of punishment was far more right wing than mine !

we are in a minority. last time i met any significant number of my contemporaries they got about as far as "well i think England should have it's own national anthem".
a valid point, don't get me wrong, but hardly a mind-expanding closing statement.
