    `So Vince you`ve read my book and I`ve read yours but have you read Shirley`s? She really was a `A Fresh Start for Britain’ in breaking the mould for the People.’

  • Paddy ” I bet LDV use this on their funny photo caption”
    Vince ” No they wont – its not really that funny”

  • Vince: “Crawling last year, walking this year”
    Paddy: “Yes, I am so proud”

  • Simon Titley 10th Oct '09 - 1:20pm

    Vince: “Don’t patronise him – he’s over 30, you know.”
    Paddy: “Over 30? Good God man, I’ve had far more than that!”

  • PA: “Which steward let you in without your badge”

  • Cheltenham Robin 10th Oct '09 - 9:29pm

    Paddy: You might be getting plaudits in the Daily Mail and Daily Telegraph for being an economic guru but until you’ve been on the front page of The Sun with an innapropriate ‘pun’ headline you haven’t made the big time.

  • (watching Nick’s speech)
    Vince: “Oh dear, clapping this is a struggle, he’s not half as good as I would be”
    Paddy: “Oh dear, clapping this is a hoot, he’s not half as good as I was”

    Paddy (to Vince): “great speech, wasn’t it? Best ever. We’re certain to win the general election with a landslide now. Tremendous. He’ll be on the next honours list for this. Wonderful. Couldn’t have gone better.”
    (to microphone): “keeell them!”

  • Cable: “The Appeaser of Blair, I believe.”
    Ashdown: “The Consort of the Neo-Liberals, I presume.”

    (With apologies to Low)
