By writing this post I think I answered my question but I’ll post it anyway so I can find out if I’m right or not:
Is it “each other’s” or “each others’” or something different altogether?
For example:
“having different backgrounds to draw on allows for better interaction and for peers to be each other?s mediator.”
OR
“having different backgrounds to draw on allows for better interaction and for peers to be each others’ mediator. “

Organised and run by the students of Glasgow University Veterinary Medical Association (GUVMA), the Rodeo has been an annual event of Glasgow University Veterinary School since the days of Buccleuch Street when it was a riding show. Since then the tradition has moved on to become the largest charity fundraiser associated with the University of Glasgow.
This year we will be celebrating the 45th anniversary of the Rodeo at the Garscube Estate which will be held on Saturday 30th April at the same location as last year, the Garscube Estate, home of the Veterinary School.
Last year’s rodeo was a a phenomenal success raising ?12,000 for various charities as well as entertaining, raising awareness of animal related issues and allowing participants a chance to get close to many different creatures ranging from horses to snakes. The day was spectacular with over 6000 visitors, twice the previous year with events including dog shows, falconry displays, reptile handling and a small mammal show.

and then he went on to pretty much slate Martin O’Neill saying:
“I’m not going to be made out to be a liar by Martin O’Neill, so you’re going to have to use your skills to try and defuse this thing. Bye.”
Well done Mr Quinn.
The Labour candidate is Anne Picking, a shadowy and highly elusive character who reputedly succeeded John Home Robertson as MP for East Lothian in 2001.
Her selection for East Lothian in 2001 was a surprise as she was, and remains, largely unknown in the constituency. Even Picking’s election agent has failed to justify her prolonged disappearances, merely commenting in the local paper that Ms Picking was not available.
Picking’s attendance record in the House of Commons was the poorest of any Scottish MP, while her expenses claims were amongst the highest in the UK: she claimed ?39,744 for travel in 2004, more than any other MP in the whole of the UK. This can be compared to Alistair Carmichael in Orkney & Shetland who claimed ?27,366 for travel, while David Hamilton in neighbouring Midlothian claimed just ?18,883. Picking’s total expense claim in 2004 was ?148,818, in the top ten highest claims for the whole of the UK.Source: Scottish Politics
All the bold text is my own
I’m not a fan of this MP, this woman has shown she is incompetant since election and I thoroughly hope she doesn’t get re-elected, although that is unlikely as it is a Labour stronghold. I saw her on PMQs once and she was told to sit down because her question was neither a question nor was it about a subject relevant to Central Government.
It struck me that the election could be interesting in East Lothian due to the influx of people from outside the constituency and the redrawing of the boundaries. Since 2001 a lot of people have moved from Edinburgh to East Lothian for various reasons - namely better road links and an abundance of horrible cheap plastic new houses - and that could make a difference to the overall majority, but probably not a very big one as Edinburgh is pretty strongly Labour as well. Interesting to see though.
Congratulations to Big Bruv and Wife who had their first baby on Sunday.
You get asked a few questions which could be taken any number of ways and they guess your political leanings. I’m not going to tell you if this is in anyway right but maybe you want to take the test yourself.

“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”
When you remember he had a bad stutter this was quite a statement.
The first in what will probably prove to be a very short series
“The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.”
Bearing in mind the limits of a politician’s language then do they see no limit to the world they could rule over?
I missed Grand Designs Revisited last night, it was the house I wrote about when they went first time round, the one in Edinburgh. Did anyone else see it, was it good finished?
