Awww... bless him - he did well really didn't he?

Is he here legally?

Why shouldn't he be? Are you?

Yes I am. I thought I heard he was an illegal. Possibly mistaken.

Just wondering.

Was not he the guy who went for an interview for some sort of lowly paid job and the 'professionals' thought he was somebody else, said follow me and - you saw the result.

Anyway, illegal or not - he has got my vote too.

Guy Goma was great in that interview - talk about thinking in your feet. It's just a shame he didn't get the job he went for.

Hi, Bob,

This isn't a comment, just a note to let you know my photoblog is up: http://freebornjohn.wordpress.com/

Looks good too, John. Had a bit of rain have you?

I love that David Davis quote which implies that things were so bad 10 years ago you could be locked up for next to nothing, and the Wolfowitz quote is an absolute corker.

Yes, we often get rather a lot of rain here in the monsoon season along with the occasional Category 4 cyclone.

I'm rather pleased with the Wolfowitz quote as it's coupled with a photo of one of the world's deadliest snakes outside our front door. Quite appropriate for the Sept 11th entry too.

More pix coming every couple of days and there are large versions for download if anyone wants to decorate their desktop with assorted scary creatures and weather.
