Lembit Opik Dates Cheeky Girl

It has been common knowledge in Westminster for some time that the engagement of Welsh Liberal Democrat MP, Lembit Opik and television weather presenter, Sian Lloyd had ended.
Now it has been revealed that Mr Opik has replaced - "Scattered showers and highs of 13 degrees" for:
"Don't ask why, Don't be shy, Touch my bum, This is life."
These are the lyrics of the 'Cheeky Song' - the first UK single released by the 'Cheeky Girls'. It was voted the worst pop record of all time despite remaining in the UK top 5 for five weeks in January 2004.

Mr Opik has been dating Gabriela Irimia, one of the pop twin duo.

The twin sisters from Romania moved to the UK with their mother in 2002. They shot to fame through popular TV show, 'Popstars: The Rivals'.

Margit Irimia, the Cheeky Girls' mother, is said to be pleased with her daughters choice and is, apparently, not concerned about the age gap or Mr Opik's UFO obsessions.

Mr Opik was born in Northern Ireland, the son of Estonian refugees. He has represented the Welsh constituency of Montgomeryshire since 1997.

Wonderful Whitehouse Cheese!

I have been surprised that many people I have spoken to over the last few weeks have never seen or heard of Barney Cam.
Barney is one of President Bush's two dogs. It has become something of a tradition that a short video is made every Christmas starring the said canine. Click the link below to watch the leader of the free world (and his friends) talk to a dog as it runs around the West Wing.

Some people think this sort of thing is bizarre and crazy and perhaps a little worrying. Personally I think it is a great idea - what an advert for democracy! God Bless Barney and God Bless America!

(Look out for the name of the Secretary of Education - you really couldn't make this stuff up!)

Apologies!

My apologies for the lack of posts recently - have had a lot of work on some of which you can listen to on this site.

I will try to get back into the swing of things over the next few days!
