Re: PotUS from 2021: Buttigieg, Bernie, Warren, Trump?
Tulsi Gabbard is my first choice, though she doesn’t have a chance. Bernie is my 2nd, and maybe he does. Warren a distant third.

And I take mine off to one of our visitors,

Re: New bike!
At 16kg, definitely not one for the weight weenies! Also, superwoman goes shopping (note the ad copy).

Re: "Sacred Places" - a Non-Secular thread

Re: You may already be a winner
The winner has been announced in our house organ, but I won't keep you in suspense: it was Boris Johnson. There is no truth to the rumour that the London mayor was only chosen because I happened to have a clean head of his lying around. A jersey tailored to Mr Johnson's physique was not available at...

Re: Blowin' in the wind
Thanks very much. You both win. There's no shame in the fact that it's by default. Dylan himself would probably be pleased at the way you didn't even stick to the song.
