Didn't get the Delphic ally allusion, then ZM? That's a friend of Apollo to those in the nose.

There is the Pythoness to consider. Laurel leaves like. (Don't tell me, Wall, you set light to it and stick it in your ear?).

μηδεν αγαν.

Chucked that bit in for PP. Nothing Dionysian you understand.

Binge drinkers, those maenads. The only way is Skiathos.

[Zacs-Master]

It's all Greek to me.

[murraymints]

EH ?

[vetuste_ennemi]

Peter will get it.

[Peter Pedant]

Delphic as a difficult word ? when I said I would supply explanatory notes, I said it as er a joke.
BUT
"3. (often lowercase) oracular; obscure; ambiguous: She was known for her Delphic pronouncements."

hey that could be a delphic pronouncement on Nigh.
Mikey - spiteful and malicious. PP - a stalker . Baldric - puerile and stupid
They're all pretty delphic comments you know arent they ?
[ the above was a joke - intended to leaven some rather leaden comments with the intention of bringing a little ray of sunshine into your post election reading]

Well, if we're on a classical theme......
“When one with honeyed words but evil mind
Persuades the mob, great woes befall the state.”
― Euripides, Orestes

Don't go Blue Peter on me, Peter.

I chucked in the Greek because I thought you might have recognised it.

[vetuste_ennemi]

You should be kind to your mum, ZM.

[murraymints]

Don't look back in anger !! me no clever clogs like wot you lot is !

[vetuste_ennemi]

There is of course Lizzie Borden. But I can't recall her having appeared in the Oresteia or in the later work by Euripides.

[Zacs-Master]

Too much of a Narcisus fan V_E.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Axe. Am I getting the methods confused? Aegisthus, innit?

Its been a long night, ZM.

Tory disaster but labour success (according to Jezza)with nearly 60 fewer seats and no chance of a majority.....how does that work?

[vetuste_ennemi]

May's casus belli was to gain a bigger majority. She achieved not only a lower majority, but a hung parliament, Jom.

Victory for Corbyn no. Humiliation for Tess yes.

[anotheoldgit]

Margaret Thatcher, Nicola Sturgeon and Theresa May, does that tell us something?
Perhaps Labour should show their equality they are always going on about?

[anotheoldgit]

I think this is all a conspiracy on May's part.

She was against leaving the EU, so what does she do?

She gave up a Tory majority and swiftly calls for an election then washes all their dirty linen in public by announcing all the cuts they intend to introduce, while Labour announce all the 'goodies' they intend to introduce.

The outcome is what we see this morning, instead of May going into negotiations over Europe with a strong backing, she now goes in with a much weaker backing.

The woman is a disgrace both to the Tories but also to her country and the sooner she is gone the better.

AOG....I think May has taken 5 weeks to commit suicide.

[anotheoldgit]

mikey4444

Yes she should commit hara-kiri and fall on her sword.
