Dream Caption Competition


Just received from the friend who came on holiday with us to Lake Como in the Summer. Er, thanks Jenny. Anyway, food for a caption competition, I thought. So, what would be in the dream bubble above my head? Any mention of Maidstone will be banned... :)

"...West Ham beat Man U 20-0, securing their place as victors of the Premier League for the tenth successive year..."

Why, despite being on a boat on a lake or something, wearing a burqa colour-coordinated with my huge checked skirt, do I feel I should probably be somewhere else?

So this is how Gordon Brown sees things.

On the steps of Number 10, PM dale quoted from St Francis of Assisi:

"Where there is discord, may we bring harmony. Where there is error, may we bring truth. Where there is doubt, may we bring faith. And where there is despair, may we bring hope."

Sorry, I can't come up with a suitable caption. All I feel, sitting in my office looking out over grey London, is a deep, deep sense of jealousy....

Do I win a special prize for naming the boat you were on... I reckon it's the 'A. Manzoni' and you've just passed Bellagio.

Why the need for a caption? I just thought you were practicising for being in the House of Commons, after the Conservative Party finally come to their senses.

Well, I've just turned on my computer and see that none of us was - uh - inspired. Let's face it, we weren't even mildly amusing. It's all Iain's fault for giving us a boring project.

[12:24] - Re your grey skies. Well, we've got another day of vivid sunshine and brilliant blue skies and guess what. It gets old. I personally like the subtlety of grey.

“Oh I must be dreaming. Gordon Brown’s personal credibility destroyed. David Cameron and the Conservatives ahead in the polls. Menzies Campbell toast. Vince Cable lauded. Hillary Clinton defeated at Iowa. Is that a flying pig or is it an oracle?”

Dear reader it was the latter and who would have thought it last summer (when this photo was take).
