Nice to see a sense of perspective...we can release Osmosis Bin Liners spiritual guru who can't be deported because of his human rights on bail, but a geriatric female Yank TV presenter poses a threat to national security.

Makes you proud to be British.

Mods. Please feel free to delete this post if it strays into the political minefield. Personally, I just despair of what the world is coming to.

Maybe it was the massive corporate stock fruad that she only got a short jail term for?

well, I'd never have thought that hair bleach and orange drink powder could be combined to form a brisant explosive until last month ... who knows the mischief a well turned out blueberry pie could wreak aboard a crowded bus.

Thank you very much for spending my taxes so wisely, mr Brown! and aren't there a lot of them these days! hnnngngngng.

We'll throw in Oprah if you take Martha......

Martha is RAW, don't let the apron & sugarcoating fool you. With all those kitchen shears, pruning shears, gardening shears, pinking shears...she could cut you 10 ways to Sunday before you can say "etiquette guru". What she is is a menace, probably better to err on the side of caution.

Maybe they thought she was a risk to British culture and that she might introduce dangerous, radical new ideas - like tasty cooking. Wink

Would that necessarily be a bad thing?

Now then - why are we still taunting the French about 1940? Didn't the Germans defeat just about everybody until 1942? If you want to talk surrender, have a go at Germany - they did it twice!

I think the surrender jibe is to do with the Vichy government and its collaboration with the nazis. there's no need to surender everything.

Oh.......let's not get political....
Can't we all be friends and talk about cheese, onion loaf, wine, the Louvre.......the skyline of French cities at night, illuminated by the glow of burning Peugeots.....

Ah....France.......

I am in the US and I didn't know what onion loaf is either, but it sounds disgusting.

I looked it up to see what it was:

I'm not sure who invented onion loaf, but if Martha Stewart had anything to do with it, no wonder GB is keeping her out.

Ah, like the blooming onion at the Texas Steak House. Wink

Posted: Sun Jun 22, 2008 7:59 am

Or onion rings, perfectly marvelous if done right, dreadful crap if not....

Nobody serves them with cheese in the US, except....maybe TRANSPLANTED EUROPEANS!
