This is getting way off topic, wandering all over the back 40 so to speak ... so let's get back to some serious, thoughful discussion: now, those custards: do they have a sprinkling of nutmeg on them?

It's nutmeg and some other spices.

If I told you, then I'd have to kill you, and I don't like hurting people.

Well, not unless they deserve it.

The custard wouldn't taste right without the nutmeg.

Thanx ... just wondered if all the heat generated by the expense account thing was linked to an upcoming election ...

By the way, what kind of voter turnout do you have in borough elections? As opposed to, say, elections for the national government? I would presume, tho' I don't know, that turnout for the European elections would be small.

Normally more turn out when its the general election rather than local elections.

These are from hyndburn borough councils website.

Margaret, which 2 MEP's did you mail?

Now you definately are asking for something!!!!!

Cos what happens with the european elections meaning its one on its own ... im dreading going and voting in june .... cos their elections are totally different to what happens in ours ......... ok according to their website ... the north west turn out was 41.46% ... 2004 Election Results | UK Office of the European Parliament

This is because instead of first past the post its proportional representation ... European Elections | UK Office of the European Parliament
