What are the wrong and right sort of chaps in your book? I've never been interested in making such judgements, but I am aware that they are made. But by whom, and on what basis do they make their decisions? By James Wilkins of 49 Frobisher Place, Derby, on the basis of height. (Don't really know what answer you are hoping for.) |

Simply an answer which explains how the wrong and right sort of chaps are identified! I suppose height would work - after all, aren't Swiss banks run by gnomes? But then the railways are advertising with gnomes... -- Arthur Figgis Surrey, UK |

"Recliner" wrote in message ... wrote in message I dont't need to invent nonsense regarding Bob Crowe - his own idiocy is more than enough for me. Bob Crow may be odious, but he's certainly not an idiot. He's well paid, probably popular with his members (for whom he delivers increased wages and holidays on fine days when there's good sport on the telly) and is possibly the best known trade unionist in Britain. I suppose he's the communist equivalent of Michael O'Leary, who is also very successful in what he sets out to do. For ****s sake, or is that for ****'s sake, he gets wage increases for his members. A brain dead monkey could get wage increases for union members that have the travelling public by the balls. Did you see him making a half hearted attempt at standing up for the redundent wind turbine workers in the IOW. Kevin |
