Well I'm off to Birmingham tomorrow but I've just found out it's the Tory Party conference there at the moment. I wonder how many roads will be closed to protect our illustrious leaders in waiting from the the nasty terrorists? They probably need more protection from the brummie accent than anything else.
How come these politicians pick such glamourous locales for their conferences? I mean Birmingham? Why don't they just stay in London, out the way and where they all live anyway? I'm only bitter because my trip to Bournemouth was delayed because of the Lib-Dems conference. They seem to be following me round the country. I also discovered that both Bill Bryson and Terry Pratchett are to appear at the Tory shindig. I can't believe that two funny and apparently liberal authors, which I really admire, are closet Tories. How disappointing.
Pratchett I can understand, his mind is going, but what's Bryson's excuse?
