    I was actually expecting an image of a polished turd with a yellow ribbon round it...glad I was wrong :laugh: But then, I have no idea who (or what) Pob is, so that doesn't help much ;)

      Never heard of any of them.

      You're not missing much and you haven't lost out.

      If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

        As Septimus says, you haven't missed much. Obama met him when he was leader of teh UK opposition and described him as "a lightweight". He hasn't improved since then...

            Pob was massive for a couple of years when I was a kid, a kind of cult status - I'd imagine for a short period in the late nineties every school had one kid given the knickname.

                I'm not allowed to discuss Gove in the house. It's the same as when Brown was in power, if I say what I think about him then Mrs Wife has trouble talking politely to them. I was very proud of her last week, early morning through to a late dinner spent with The Great Victator and Camaroon, and she didn't drop a single C bomb or punch either of them; I call that restrained.

                  I wouldn't group all American's with me. I don't watch the news. It's too depressing and I have more important things to do.

                      So why should anyone care what their name is? They always do exactly the same thing: cock up education even further, a task which seems quite impossible and yet is usually executed with fantastic efficiency.

                                      I must admit I'd be very hard pressed to name more than half a dozen cabinet ministers, other than Dave & George. And, to be more honest, I really find it diificult to care any more, I disagree with so much of what the say or do.

                                        Discussion about the teachers strike at work today - leave it, not here - when the woman I sit next to (in her 20s) asked "Who is Michael Gove"*. I was sad and angry and told her she wasn't allowed to contribute to any discussion about anything. After a few seconds I asked her "Have you heard of David Cameron?"**. She said "Yes of heard of him... Don't know who he is, but I've heard of him". I don't want to live on this planet anymore. *UK Education Secretary - if your are UKian and don't know then award yourself a kick in the kock, this explanation is for everyone else. **None of you should need this one explaining.

                                        I wouldn't want to live in a country where complete ignorance of a topic would keep me from voicing very strong opinions about it.

                                          As Septimus says, you haven't missed much. Obama met him when he was leader of teh UK opposition and described him as "a lightweight". He hasn't improved since then...

                                          The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger. English doesn't borrow from other languages. English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.
