miked10270 0 #30 September 17, 2004 "It's a pitty to see adults such with a poor grasp of the English language. Pour votre edification" ???? I see that the "War on Error" continues unabated! Anyway, it WAS kind of kept out of the news, but there were simultaneous attacks on the Welsh and Scottish Parliaments. The Welsh attack failed completely when the protesters realised that none of them actually knew where the Welsh Parliament was. The protesters blundered around for a while, had an ice cream in Aberystwyth, and were last seen in Port Meirion where they were under the impression that they were all prisoners. As the Scottish protesters stormed up the drive to Hollyrood, they realised that they had forgot ONE vital piece of equipment - SUNGLASSES. Temporarily blinded by the damond-topped posts surrounding the Executive Parking Area. They lost their bearings and ran headfirst into the back of the security response team's official Lada. A Scottish Parliament spokesman later pointed out that the passive security, while expensive ad worked well. He also pointed out that the security force Lada was obtained in deference to the Scottish Socialist Party and that nothing should be read into the fact that the Lada appears on the Parliamentary accounts as a Bentley. A Welsh Parliament spokesman could not be found. Neither could the parliament building itself. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

mr2mk1g 10 #31 September 17, 2004 Christ man you must have taken a while to type that! I corrected that typo ages ago. Not sure what your problem with my use of French is though... although it is the language of the Devil.
