Ah Sandy that was funny. And then it went all black!!!!

[Psybbo]

But he is such fun
Thanks Sandy, did he really used to be a teacher?

[sandyRoe]

He was a maths teacher once. He's also a part time nudist. Pictures in the Sunday World to prove it.

[jennyjoan]

Boke boke boke SW in the nudy - perish the thought!!!

I have no idea what this is about :-)

[Psybbo]

Conne, he wasn't that bad to be honest if my memory serves me well
I hope you're coping with your visitor xx

A DUP worker called Brimstone(what a name paisley wouldn't have liked it) tried to bully a committee member to vote a certain way.
Jim Allister who was a leading lawyer got the opportunity to question him. Sammy Wilson tried to protect Brimstone by turning his attack on Allister calling him a bully. In reality, he seems to be the only opposition there is in Stormont

Wolf, seriously you couldn't make it up, lets put cats in charge

[sandyRoe]

They're a lot of crooks, chancers, and worse. Direct rule from Westminster would be better.

The terms "thug" or "thuggery" have an interesting , although violent, history behind them.

[sandyRoe]

There's none of the elected assemblymen and women would sneak up behind you and strangle you with a scarf.
Wait, though, I'm not so sure about that...

[sandyRoe]

They wouldn't strangle you, but they'd stab you in the back as quick as look at you. ☺

[stuey]

If they were really into thuggery, Sandy, they wouldn't be so crass as to use a scarf. A bespoke type of garrote would be their preference:)
