Psst! Here's a little tittle-tattle ...
* 
So where's Wolcott when one wants him?
Eh?
This Old Brit's just joking of course -- he's actually a huge fan and regular reader of James Wolcott -- who he suspects has, in turn, a soft spot of his own for a certain little lady called Cherie. http://jameswolcott.com/archives/2005/07/are_the_wives_g.php
Now, far be it it from we Brits to start telling tales out of school [or to be getting into the gossip column business] but take a little look at this.
But there's more.
Eh? Gulp! Pardon?!
Shush! Shut up and get a load of this.
I know, I know -- you're thinking This Old Brit's finally, flippin' flipped and gone completely bloomin' bonkers.
But honest, he ain't; he's telling you the truth; read on.
And remember, if you don't like what you see, tell it to the Times-online; don't start shootin' at us -- we're merely the messengers. Besides, there's been so much sad & scary stuff shoved down our throats lately that sometimes one simply has to stop and smile -- for a while anyhow.
Enjoy! //;^]

Ooooh! I [can almost] hear you say: "What in the world will Tony think when he hears about Bill talking to his missus, like that?"It is never too late to change course, Clinton suggests playfully. Cherie is “young and vigorous”,
But there's more.
“When he’s done and she wants a go, it would please me greatly...
Eh? Gulp! Pardon?!
Shush! Shut up and get a load of this.
She is an enormously able person. I love her.”
I know, I know -- you're thinking This Old Brit's finally, flippin' flipped and gone completely bloomin' bonkers.

Uh, oh! Maybe it's old Bill who's gone bonkers.“They may be sick of it by then; it’s up to them what they do.”
But he goes on to make Cherie an irresistible offer.
I’d be happy to do it, I think she’s great.”If that isn't enough of a cliff hanger or hasn't got you chomping on the bit and rearing to go get more - This Old Brit suggests you should be checked for a pulse.

Yep, I posted the news at Tapa yesterday, Elaine. Still, it's not really a surprise I suppose. That's about par for the course for Blair.
i saw elaines comment earlier and thought she must have been kidding...
it looks like a really dumb decision for blair.
just about everyone has re-read Cook's pre-war resignation speech in the last few days, and blair 'snubbing' the funeral will exacerbate the image of blair being divorced from reality. similarly, the parallels with bush being on holiday cant help blair.
what an odd decision.
Odd decisions seem to come naturally to Blair & Bush - but maybe describing them as 'selfish' decisions would be more apt, lukery.
Has anyone considered the fact that Blair was probably not invited by Mr Cook's family, to attend his funeral.
He may have been specificaly told by them he was not welcome.
I hope the latter is the case.
I would think he'd be expected to be there, since a public figure's funeral is pretty much a public occasion whether the family likes it or not. So my inclination is to suspect that Blair is snubbing them, not the other way around. Though I would be pleased to hear that they had told him not to come, too.
I'd like to send Tony Blair to the woodshed.
It kills me that Bill and Hillary are so intelligent - brilliant, actually - yet so opportunistic. Both have the requisite abilities to lead the formerly free world, and there aren't too many of those people afoot in the public arena. However, I guess it's human nature at work, but Hillary wants to be President more than she wants to serve the country. That could be said of virtually all who run, but she could become a respected elder staesperson if she stayed in the Senate which NEEDS sane voices.
I don't know much about Cherie Blair - didn't she visit John Kerry before the "election"? Who knows what game they're all up to. No good has come of it yet.
I think Blair's just a coward, like Bush. He knows Robin Cook is a hero, and that he's the villain.
