    When dictators meet (or don't)

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7132218.stm

    It isn't always possible to pick and choose who you sit down with at these meetings, occasionally it will be a Stalinist dictator who has ruined his own country's economy for his own political ends.
    That's what they said to Mugabe, but now he'll be spared from having Brown at the meeting.

    I'm sure you are a nice guy , but starting every post with some sad reference to Dr Who is a little tiresome now

    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          It is as well that I am thick-skinned (having an exoskeleton can be an advantage sometimes).

          I have changed my sig. to put any onus on the reader of future posts.

            You caved in faster than Ruprect! PC correctness rules, if that's okay with the rest of you?

            This board isn't as good as it used to be...

              Don't let the bastards grind you down. There are far more tiresome things on this board than your sig. Like the constant and tedious BICKERING!

                Thanks for your support, it was time for a change in any case.

                I don't find the Bagpuss / Sasguru / Atw etc. stuff all that interesting either, but if you don't like something you aren't forced to read it.

                  Your new sig made me chuckle, but...
