T B and a BeeGee on the QT (Tony Blair and Robin Gibb)
Personally, I believe the world would be a better place if Blair's plane had landed on Gibbs' house.

After the annual ritual of controversy surrounding his choice of summer holiday accommodation, Tony Blair was hoping to keep his plans for some winter sun with the family quiet. Unfortunately the prime minister had not planned on their British Airways jet overshooting the runway at Miami International airport early yesterday, crushing some landing lights and sending hordes of journalists rushing to the scene.
All 343 passengers got off the plane unharmed, but the Blairs' secret was out: they were heading for the splendid waterfront home of the former Bee Gees singer Robin Gibb.

2. Oh, Tony, how...pedestrian for a man of your ilk!
A Bee Gee? Though the waterfront home sounds nice.
But what of the war, the soldiers, your devotion and conviction in the righteousness of it all? :eyes:

3. The song "Staying Alive" will have all new meaning for Lapdog Tony Blair now...
Maybe the experience will give him a much-needed new perspective on things.
