I came across this site just now. Like the Letterman Show, some of it is too American to be funny as I just don’t get the references and in-jokes, but some of the bits I do get are pretty amusing – like this entry Its a great idea though. Every day he posts a photo […]

I would not normally recommend a repeat, but tonight ITV is showing John Pilger’s documentary Stealing A Nation at 11pm. This is of particular local significance to Crawley and West Sussex as many of the islanders affected have settled here. As their port of entry to the UK was Gatwick airport it fell on West […]

More door-knocking
July 21st, 2005 · Comments Off on More door-knocking · Politics
We had a decent crowd for door-knocking tonight.
