Their claims of their 'old' party getting
too fascist for them makes you worry, or it should, as all three of them have consistently
voted against welfare reforms or help for the very people Tereasa May-be Maybe-not
said she would help in her inaugural speech.
The ten since joined by someone else; a 'Lone
Stranger'- no-one's ever heard of! Giving us a new colour in 'the swamp',
bigger than the Liberal party, but very grey! There'll probably be some more
jumpers today [one more already - he's not talking to the other 11!], or over
the weekend, we're four weeks from Brwreakshit Day, with both main parties
hollowing-out and factionalised, the DUP being . . . what they've always been;
bloody awkward while the Scot's Nat's talk common-sense . . . to the wall!
And everybody hoping for a change to the
backstop, that the 27 have said - repeatedly - won't happen!
Buy toys . . . it's as good a time as any
to buy toys.
Especially from any European dealers who
come over for the day, they may not be here again - after the 29th March?
Weighed-in, weighed-out, tax-owed estimated, visas . . . it's gonna' be fun,
this 'Brave New World' the snake-oil salesmen sold the 52%.
Lots of stuff this coming week, both fairs and auctions . . .

'How they come in'!
Yesterday (Thursday)'s trawl up the
high-street; an Invicta Dino' . . .
nice, and it's a third (there didn't seem to be any in storage - I wasn't sure if
there were, when I mentioned there may be), a weird sea-horse/dragon cartoon/monster
thing, another Hasbro/Parker Simpsons'
related Cludo board game, an AAA wolf and a Schleich Meercat family! Bargains!

Double-plus Good, Citizen Smith?
It would appear that my 'amazing' is more
'amazing' than his "Amazing"!
Not that I would normally claim any such idiocy, but it's a game he plays
regularly and which I only occasionally lower myself to - were I to make the
effort I could probably frag his arse, five-times a week. And because I'm a
collector, not a dealer, I don't need to wait 48-hours for the stuff to be sent
via Moscow, or from Stuttgart!
A few weeks ago it was only "Semi-amazing" (a bit limp!), in a
week or two he'll be reaching a great big cadenza of amazing, and then what? Roll-over and
go to sleep? Too funny, the man's too funny.
He literally started a war with me, without
an aim, without the wherewithal to conduct it, or win it and without a proper
plan beyond a couple of false accusations and a bit of blow-hard-ery!
Those who may not be as fully ensconced
upon the fence - as they might be giving the appearance-of to the rest of you
loyal readers - are probably best advised to disengage before they are dragged
further-in and go down with him, for - in case you haven't noticed - his wing's
been on fire for a while now.
In eight years, I haven't seen enough stuff
from him; actually his; belonging to him, to fill three shoe-boxes! If he starts
showing us stuff he hasn't shown us before; we all benefit - but I don't think
he can, and he's clearly struggling to. C'mon TJF; piss, or get-off the pot . .
