Good morning. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, but I'm afraid my walk has become rather sillier recently, and so it takes me rather longer to get to work. Now then, what was it again?

The senators aren't that paranoid.

Even in the Kremlin we didn't have people with MGs standing around.

No you're not, it's not the 'Ministry of Silly Walks', it's the 'Silly Walks Ministry'. ;)

We actually have a silly walks ministry though! I voted on the bill! And sponsored it, I think.
Also, technically you would have to sue Anin, as he runs the CTC. I'm just a Neville Shunt.

Would anybody be interested in a new version of the old Leishaagen Docks?

Is it time to archive the ATN thread and move TV programs onto the Daily Life thread? Just a suggestion, but it's Ainin's thread so he can do what he wants with it.
