I kid you not.

This should imply that Mr. Balls has a lot to answer for, as Gordon seemingly didn't realise what was going on!
Keeping in line with the thread's development, I just cannot, and no matter how I try, cannot read the name of North Korea's president without inevitably reading: King John II.

Did you know, Im sure you did, that we play almost all our sports with balls. In golf for example you have the long ball, or you have the short ball, you can have a chipped ball or a sliced ball, and when you have company you can play a fourball or even a twoball. Many a romance was conjured up over a twoball...
When playing against the americans in the seventies they had big balls, the brits used a smaller ball, so they had small balls. It didnt come as a surprise that the Americans had big balls.. which the Brits had difficulty using.
What the above has to do with anything gawd knows...
Ed Balls alas...I would love to be able to defend him. He certainly has lots of balls but I cant see him as a vote winner, he just doesnt have the charisma. He is earnest but just doesnt have the charisma. How he hoodwinked Yvette Cooper into tripping down the aisle isnt clear. When I say he has lots of balls, I refer of course to the little balls at home running around the kitchen.
email: dover7@msn.com - 26 September 2011 10:16128224He is a neighbour of mine...not close, in any sense though.
In all the time he has lived here (is this their second or first...or third home?) our paths have only crossed once. He was walking with his children [best to leave aside all further mention of them] and although I am nothing remarkable to cast eyes upon he has that uncanny knack, as does D Abbott, of knowing just when to look away.
