Why does the Tory media spend so much time attacking the PM?
In the wake of the hacking trial yesterday, I still don't understand why the Conservative-supporting press and media are so anti-Cameron.
Can anyone enlighten me on this???
3 part lists revisited again!
Today Mendip District Council only collect our recycling boxes, but NOT our green wheelie bins - see the late great Gail Jefferson, above, on 3 part lists (and at http://maxatkinson.blogspot.co.uk/2008/11/why-so-many-lists-of-three-mystery.html).
Who'd have thought any local authority smart enough to know about Gail and the power of three part lists?!
Not to mention a pub at Lulworth Cove in Dorset which has a welcoming three part list on its wall that reads:
SLEEPING
EATING
DRINKING!!!
EATING
DRINKING!!!
