21:2781348I suppose from now until May we will get irrelevant political postings on almost every thread.
therefore a plea from this non political old lady.
Please be good little boys and stick to the official political threads, I know you will find it almost impossible, if not by the time May arrives I will be further round the bend than I am already.

21:3881351I have a suggestion. Let's keep this thread open as long as possible, anyone who makes a post in this thread which might be regarded as political has to put £1 in a charity box. Vic, you're first!

22:1681368ohh how about the western heights preservation society?
Or one of the local little charities that do something for the local community rather than a large charity that you cant always see where the money goes...

23:5981386Jan, I really enjoy going in that shop, buying collectables. One day when I have a few rooms more, and some glassframed cupboards, and shelves, I'll display so many lovely littlle items.At present my last purchase is still in a plastoc bag on the floor, and my prints are still stacked up in the wardrobe for lack of space. Except one print I got in Maidstone titled: the Shire Horse.

18:1681778Vic, you need to be careful what you say on Internet forums during the period before an election. You don't want the Standards Board after you.
