Blair Ice Sculpture

Unknown artist - Ice Bust of Tony BlairA 4 foot bust of Tony Blair sculpted in ice has been unveiled by environmental activists in Trafalgar Square. It contains a book called I Count by campaign group Stop Climate Chaos. I should imagine it'll be a bit soggy by the time the sculpture melts. And why choose Tony Blair? His record on environmental issues isn't too bad. It's President Bush who's been in denial about the whole thing. "Climate change? What climate change?" He'll still be saying that when the next great flood swamps the White House. What a wally!

Mrs Weggis thinks there is one too many O's in the book title!

Hi, Calvin
Er...am I right in assuming you mean this Saturday: 14 October? I wouldn't want to pedal miles for nothing, especially as I haven't got a bicycle.
Er...nothing personal, but has anyone warned you that there is scientific research that shows a link between regular bicycling and impotency? It may be green, but it puts a lot of pressure in the wrong place! My advice is to leave pedalling to women.
