New Labour Leader - one hour away

If you shop at waitrose you get a free newspaper if you spend more than £5 in the week and £10 at weekends. Not sure if you have waitrose up north. Do you have electricity and flush loos?

Yes, there's a Waitrose not too far from us, although that's in the Cheshire stockbroker/footballer belt. It's a bit expensive, though, and the food's just as good at Morrison's.

We have had electricity since I ever remember although, when I was a child, the sockets were like this:

We also rejoiced in having a nice outside toilet with attendant candle in a jam jar.

Ah, those were the days.

In East London, we also had an outside loo with resident spider, a tin bath behind a curtain in the kitchen and............did you also have the broken glass cemented on the top of the yard wall?

No, we couldn't afford walls... or glass for that matter.

No problem. It's just nice to meet someone else who's also lived such a hard life.
Still, I bet our cardboard box was smaller than yours!

We used to get murdered four times a day by our little old nan but worse than that she would make us have tea and a chat with noseall.

Does that make sense?
