Old Speckled Hen Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Can anybody recommend a place to hide till May 7th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerryegg Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Not Herefordshire. Apparently we are a key seat. Suggest no radio, tv or internet. Just move in with the chooks. I wonder if foreign travel bookings are up for early May? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Set up a tent in your garden? Go 'wild' camping somewhere? I hardly ever buy a paper, nor do I watch TV very often, but it's going to be hard to avoid it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I suggest borrowing some small children for a few weeks - then all you'll be able to listen to is CBeebies or Thomas the Tank Engine (whats happening on May 7th? Should I know??) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 The Conservatives once tried canvassing in my very busy betting shop on Grand National day I sent him out with a flea in his ear and woe betide he try it on again this Saturday My brother is taking a politics degree from September, he's beside himself with excitement already so I suggest you don't stay anywhere near him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 We had Boris knock on our door last time round. So no,Henley is probably not the safest place to hide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 You could come here - no-one can be bothered to walk up our drive but I do have a tendency to have the TV on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickvic Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 We haven't been bothered for years and I don't have it on the television - we do vote but it's easy to see why people are so apathetic around here. At the local elections a neighbouring constituency had the BNP get in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Not Sheffield Hallam either. It will be a buzzin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 My place is fine, no TV (generally) and unless you read my paper you'd miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once met a prof John Parkinson from there who taught me all about eclipses and much about stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadietoo Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 You'd be fairly safe here in Sussex by the Sea.....( if you put a blue rosette on a donkey here it would still get voted in so I don't think they bother to canvass ). Personally I will be turning off my tv and radio until it is all over...and foregoing the luxury of a paper on a Saturday (only have time to read one paper a week!)....

Egluntyne Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Perhaps we can ask the mods to ban any political threads?! We wade in when things get heated. When it is jogging along merrily as this one is so far, we leave well alone and even join in the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
