Ming's Memoirs: Can You Think of a Good Title?

The Sunday Telegraph Mandrake Column informs us that this autumn's political publishing sensation will be, er, the memoirs of Ming Campbell. Come again? Don't politicians normally pen their life story when their political career is over? Ah, the penny's just dropped. Now, dear readers, you know how I like to treat you all with massive prizes? (I sound like Andrew Neil!) Well let's have a little competition. The person to come up with the best title for Ming's memoirs will get a copy of Charles Kennedy's slim tome, the Future of Politics. Get scribbling in the Comments section.
