One thing I forgot to mention from Endless Thursday: around 2am in the Commons, while the opposition were furiously demanding that Tony turn up, Charles Clarke stood up to speak, and, amid the general heckling, I swear I heard the following:

Tory 1: We don't want the organ grinder!
Tory 2: Yes we do! We don't want the monkey!
**pause**
Tory 1
: We don't want the monkey!

Brilliant. I take it this is one of those times when no-one speaking responded, and so it's lost to the official records? There should be a seperate Hansard for things like that. Lest the record of our democratic heritage be incomplete.

I thought I heard something like this too, but I was too drunk/miserable to care.

Surely the episode on the roundabout must have staved off the black dog for a few silly minutes?

I didn't go on the roundabout.

I do remember you standing in the middle of it, though, looking frighteningly sober and awake.
