"He has joined the increasing number of people who are now ashamed to belong to the Conservative party."

Where is your proof Mrs Gidley?

Oh Dearie me! They were right! Some little birds told me you'd been sniping again!

One day maybe you'll stand still long enough to get the whole picture before "blogging off".

"accompanied by" - well, if you count someone I'd never met in my life before (and may not see ever again) at the ATM. We had just been discussing your plans to take away his freedoms as a Shogun driver. When your motley crew approached he asked who it was - he didn't even recognise Charlie - so I was as surprised as you were when he started getting agitated........

......... "Funny thing" and "ashamed" - not at all. Call me old-fashioned, but I have always voted for the candidate I prefer to be my MP - not who the leader of any party happens to be at the time. I refuse to be tied to one party and, over the years, have put my cross against almost all shades - except "Lib Dem" and Monster Raving Looney. But I can promise you that, until you stop promising things you'll never have to deliver, I'm never ever likely to vote for the "yellow" brigade.

So rb - are you saying that your appearance at the atm just before the ck visit was a pure coincidence? You so happened to inform the owner of a 4x4 of Norman Baker's views (which I do not believe are party policy or likely to be in the manifesto). Gosh - such coincidences all in one day....
You may refuse to be tied to one party but I seem to recall that you were supposedly thinking of joining us at one time (you recently confirmed this when you were standing in my kitchen but also told me that you had been involved with the Conservative party too long to ever consider really changing).

Your comment is also inconsistent.

So RB you have never voted for the yellow brigade. That does not fit in with comments made to many local lib dems over the years. I have always found it better to take what you say with a pinch of salt so hope everyone else will do so too. Sandra uses the word inconsistent. I think she is being kind.

So many questions - so many answers!
Yes Sandra, it was almost a coincidence. I had no idea you and Charlie were in town until one of your rotweilers (AM) told me he was off to escort you (I was delivering a note to the Town Hall and it was awash with your acolytes waiting to pay homage.

Perhaps you had better explain why I was in your kitchen, but this is surely a poor way of repaying a favour when I called to offer you some friendly advuice.

Now to rotweiler No.1's spouse - and what's with this "BS" - Liz Brett ("call me what you like!") Barron? (I'll call you anything but Baroness!)

Maybe both you and Sandra need a history lesson. When you first asked me to join your party Liz, you were still Brett and you were still a Liberal. I notice both you and MC last week referred only to "Liberal" when you recalled how you met the venerable CM 31 years ago!

I recall you lot being in disarray in Richmond in 1989, the year after the Lib Dems came into being as such. You were responsible for William Hague becoming an MP - not sure I can forgive you for that!

A couple of years ago I was asked to go meet that Tory defector, Emma Nicholson, an offer I could easily refuse - and did.

I think I have been very consistent in resisting your siren voices.

Trouble is with you lot (with just one exception who I won't mention here as he assures me he never reads this blog) you can never hold a normal conversation with

Teehee I do like a chuckle over my morning coffee.

Nothing like rewriting history is there? Some of us know what rb was saying about the blue peril and wonder why his selective amnesia has suddenly developed
