I voted for Siobahn Benita as the London Mayor and UKIP for all the Assembly stuff.

The drones will no doubt vote Conservative / Labour as usual, because they hate having to make a choice and fear all change, so I'm not expecting my candidates to win - but hopefully there'll be enough protest votes to shake things up a bit.

You voted siobhan as you want a gratitude shag from her ad her only supporter

You voted ukip for the same reason

Thank God it's all finished with. Then those of us not living in London can stopping hearing about it.

If you had an iPad with 3G, would you notice easily, if when the plane's wifi was switched off, it automatically reverted to 3G (which AFAICS would be against the FCC law if you were still airborne).

After climbing to 10,000 feet the pilot announces that approved devices can be powered on. As the aircraft descends through 10,000 feet passengers are instructed to turn off their devices, so it doesn't really matter.

Cell phones and WiFi aren't really all that much of a hazard to aircraft and I've heard that the regulations will be relaxed in the future. The biggest problem is that the cellular phone network is accustomed to dealing with slow-moving devices that are only within range of a handful of towers. At 35,000 feet your phone could connect to hundreds or thousands of towers and I suppose it could cause some problems. Imagine if a television or radio station placed their antenna 7 miles in the air: their signal would step all over faraway stations.

I wasn't sure whether to go for BoJo.
So I went to s SootyJ gig & went for BooJew instead.

Booyah!

Better to have an underhanded sexual ulterior motive for my voting behaviour, then voting for a candidate I don't like, can't justify or think is competent just to toe some misguided party line or because I'm a stereotypical liberal London lefty incapable of independent thought.

Not that any of this applies to you soots. Whistling nnocently :P

No doubt, in your part of the world, you choose the Mayor based on a pie eating contest or if they're born with 'the mark'.

Actually I was surprised to find out a few years ago I'm a Thatcherite

Seriously it was a surprise to me

I voted for Ken I didn't vote labour

I voted for a councillor that actually got off their arse and helped me with a problem of vandalism- and a good result! Pleased

Ahh Fook.
Remembered at 6pm the really important thing I needed to do today. Monday is a public holiday so I can't do it then either.

Ahh well, at least I remembered to pay the rent

Feel a bit better now after my weekus horribulus, thanks folks :)

This is the rifle (Ruger 10/22 carbine) that my father gave me this week. I couldn't find a flightworthy case for it so I had to leave it in North Carolina. I just ordered one from Amazon, so I'll bring it home when I visit again in a few months.
