tinyurl.com/qh4jcazYep, the seemingly indestructible Rev Paisley has passed away. A brave as a lion fella, who every good protestant Oirishman should be very proud of. I only wish that we on this side of the water, could get a leader with his cojones! RIP big man........respect!

And he was never afraid of speaking his mind. Summat which is lacking in the spinless tossers that are the heads of the 3 main parties.

Many did not agree with him because of his staunch points of view, but he represented people's points of view forcibly, something that is lacking in today's environment where a fair number of politicians and trades union leaders fail miserably, being so wrapped up in the acquisition, retention and exercising of power. RIPIP, few make such a ripple. If he had been Scottish, Salmond wouldn't have stood a chance...

Brandy makes the blood pressure rise, I remember that cos my granddad drank for medicinal purposes after the shrapnel he took in the WW1. Me I drink whisky cos I like it.
