  • Hi Jamie, I think you've made a wise choice. On a couple of your points: - Harringay to Moorgate takes about 17 mins from memory, so is infinitely preferable to the tube. It can get remarkably crowded in rush hour though. - Travelling back to S…

  • Well, that was a lot less painful than the last two U.S. elections. Time for bed.

  • The "real" John McCain would have been a pretty good bet for the election but they just went all out to appeal to the base (as that nice woman was saying when John Bolton got all nasty). Hopefully they will continue to appeal to the lunatic fringe…

  • John Bolton being obnoxious and repulsive. Who knew?

  • Schama vs Bolton on the BBC - FIGHT!!!

  • McCain has had his chips.

  • Fox call Ohio for Obama. That's it!

  • Just make sure you don't go to ITV, they've got Jon Culshaw doing impressions

  • They just had Ted Koppel on to illustrate the point

  • They're copying ABC

  • Could really do with Ohio or Florida being called for Obama now to finish this off.

  • Hmmm... NBC calling Indiana for McCain.

  • He'll be behind bullet-proof glass for his speech later on.

  • Great profile of Bob Barr in the New Yorker a couple of weeks ago. I particularly enjoyed the story of when he accidently discharged a firearm during a meeting and everyone joked that they would turn up for the next get-together with bullet-proof v…

  • Sky just called Penn for Obama about an hour after everyone else. Wish I could see the look on the faces of the Fox News anchors (not rhyming slang)

  • Dimbleby is looking over the hill tonight and he's the main culprit on pronounciation as well. Still better than Sky though, who seem to be much more reluctant to call states for the Dems Maybe they have a tie-up with Fox?

  • Hitchens chucked out of the studio? He's the drinker, I'm currently just being powered by Diet Coke.
    in US Election Comment by Glyn November 2008
  • This may be the first time I have ever seen Christopher Hitchens sober.

  • Yay for Elizabeth Dole losing her Senate seat! She put out possibly the most disgusting ad of the campaign, accusing her opponent of taking money from "godless" people. Proper mental.

  • On CNN they are allegedly using holograms. Yes, holograms.
    in US Election Comment by Glyn November 2008
  • Legging it around various sites, Florida looking good for Obama and possibly Indiana. No idea why the BBC keep going back to that bloody woman in New York - "so who would David Brent vote for?" Arrggghhhh!
    in US Election Comment by Glyn November 2008
  • I'm going to stick my neck out with a conservative (according to latest polling) prediction of 291 electoral votes for Obama, not including Ohio and Florida. Given the results in those states in the last two elections, i have my doubts about them..…

  • Phew! Bit of an update via a Met Police flyer that came through the door regarding the incident on 15th Oct: "Officers arrived to find a 17 y/o male with a pellet wound to his shoulder. He was taken by an ambulance to hospital suffering non-life …

  • Thank for the update Bernie - see link below for more on bail hostels. Things starting to add up a bit now. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6124534.stm

  • There have always been loads of kids hanging around the house in question, but I've never had any problems with them at all, so very sad naturally. @ andy - Yes, it is the posh end - the mini-roundabout is particularly luxurious
    in Shooting Comment by Glyn October 2008
  • Hmm.. now very conscious that the two top threads on the board are "stabbing" and "shooting". Maybe someone should start a "cuddling" thread to take the edge off for new visitors? .... On second thoughts, that actually sounds even more threateni…

  • For those of us north of SGR, we may shortly be hit... according to Featherstone: "So it seems that Haringey Council has invested £37 million in Icelandic banks - and the Chancellor (in his statement earlier this week) made it pretty clear that co…
