So first off, this is in no way meant to discredit Tony's efforts on the IPs - he's been turning out good ones for as long as I've been on this site which can't be easy - but RJNewin, I reckon you've hit a winner here. Ok, you've used up 12 weeks worth of good IPs in one gigantic bonanza of a go, but i'm not complaining.

Aside from getting my brain juices oozing again i've been reading some of the other posts and there's some great stuff. I might have another go in a minute...

Yep, I agree. Sack Tony. What we need is a people's revolution. I can't really be bothered parading with banners or stuff, but I must admit to thinking it was a terrible IP. Sack me as well.

'ang on a minute, there are words being put in my comment box here... I'm not the revolting type myself (I rarely feel at one with the people for one) so can I sack no-one and instead pay much closer attention to all future IPs, whoever they come from?

Talking of a people's revolution in this context brought to my mind the version of this that members of the CPGB used to sing at demonstrations in the 60s and 70s. It went (I think) like this:- Twelve for the chimes of the Kremlin clock And eleven for the Moscow Dynamos; Ten for the days that shook the world, And nine for the days of the General Strike And eight for the Eighth Red Army; Seven for the days of the working week And six for the Tolpuddle Martyrs. Five for the years of the Five Year Plan And four for the four years taken. Three, three, the Rights of Man – Two, two, the workers’ hands, working for their living –o, One is Workers’ Unity and evermore shall be so. It was a purely Stalinist faction that added an extra line. Thirteen for the holes in Trotsky's head! Helvigo Jenkins

Well Helvigo. I'm giving you a cherry for your socialist response to general inertia and the IP.

Well thanks (I think). I'm afraid this week's may be nearly as crammed and Celticman will have to continue grinding his teeth. But only for one more week ... I think we ought to use Helvigo's sometime. Rob
