Well, that just goes to prove it:

You don’t need a lot of training to be an actor.

You don’t need a lot of training to be Britney Spears, though some drug use is helpful.

You don’t need a lot of training to be Russell Crowe, though having your ass on your shoulders as well as where you sit is useful.

Cheers from the colonies, y’all…

Every time the unemployment figures rise in this country I nip down to the local Jobcentre (now called Jobcentre Plus - what next Metro, Express, 100% Extra Free?) to tell them about my notion of a Dole Lottery.

Every one signing on has a pound deducted from their benefit. Every giro/benefit-in-the-bank day a National Insurance number is drawn at random from the list of those signing on.

Hey Presto! A millionaire (at least) every week or so, with the knock-on effect that they will employ gardeners, butlers, (in my case whippet polishers) and the like. The employment figures improve, the economy is boosted and the chances of winning are much higher that Camelot’s effort.

[They continue to look at me as if I'm mad.]

FSBF,

I think we had better remember that people of sensitive dispositions may be reading this; that link of Saul’s was a bit near the knuckle, don’t you think?

nobody offered kate any either, fancy that, going though all the trouble of losing your kid and not getting offered a biscuit in the local cop shop.

Nobody offered me any biscuits.

It’s not that I’m still sulking about it, or anything like that. I have the maturity to accept that some people may need biscuits more than others.

I’ll just remind people about it for the next five years or so…

Not all that tea you drank last night?

Feeling a bit woozy, which is worrying.

Hank ‘I’m Begging You’ Paulson had a woozy spell a few days back, and then we discovered that Sarah Palin likes to wave her wand around, so you have to ask yourself whether there’s a connection?

I may be the victim of magic…
