fun time.....

 Yippee, soon it's voting time here in France. Local Elections and later (I think) European ones.
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party, but which one? The Socialists  are out every Saturday at the market, giving away red roses, but only to the women....that's discrimination! Why can't I have one...?
I've got one of these  but I want a rose...
In any case, the ladies only eat them.....
In France there are quite a number of parties, in fact almost as many as cheeses produced  but only one gives something away!
Maybe a lump of cheese COULD sway my judgement.....with a piece of bread, of course.

 Here are relatively up to date stats, and this tells a lot more  Thing is - it scares the hell out of other women like wives, as well as male politicians....
Anyway - I'll go to the town hall and vote, not tellin' ya who for though.....!
 Guess she'll have to do the cooking on those 2 Sundays!

A bit of their history is here: http://www.graftingardeners.co.uk/history-londons-commons/ and some are used by the well known  London Buses. Some are criss-crossed by main roads, some have public golf courses, some have tennis courts, both in concrete and in grass.... The special thing about these 'Commons' is their size....They are immense. In pure ground value they must be worth billions of billions of pounds sterling, and yet there is rarely any attack made on their status. It is rather astounding! Just for the record, there is another, ...

One God's ideas sometimes work in with another one's.......! But the real philosophies are varied.... and there's always an easy way out or to avoid the issue!
