Oh My God I spotted A UKIP Poster!

As I was driving home there was a bus that stopped in front of me at the traffic lights in Central Milton Keynes which had a UKIP poster on it, it was stuck on in a haphazard way as it was half stuck over the Scania sign, I can't even remember what the slogan was so can't of been that good.
Had Parliament TV on my laptop, Vera Baird MP for Redcar was speaking on the Equality Bill in the Wash out stage before Parliament is prologued on April 12th she has the most seductive voice but very school marmaish and gives the impression you would not want to cross her, as I went on Members Net where for £9.00p I could have sent out 30 leaflets to be posted to target voters it did not say if they would be local or around the Country, you can choose between various templates depending on the subject you wanted to write about I chose to write about my experiences of the NHS (as the instructions said you must only write about your own experiences.)
You can also upload a photograph of yourself and sign off under your own name and then pay for them, you also get sent a copy of your personalised card as a souvenir.
Unluckily for me I typed everything out and uploaded my photograph and when I clicked on the button to be shown a PDF document of my card my system froze on me which followed by lots of swearing and violence towards my laptop, and had to start all over again when it came to paying for them I put my card number in but did not space the sections of the numbers out and so it refused payment (again lots of swearing) when I went back and made the corrections it worked! so look forward to recieving my finished product in the post.
Useless facts on the General Election for you:
a) All three main party leaders have young children
b) This is the first General Election campaign for all the three main party leaders
c) This is the first General Election where there will be televised debates with the three main party leaders
If I come across any more useless facts I will let you know.
Post script The Guardian Newspaper today has done me proud not only is there eleven pages covering the General Election but an essential pull out guide too also I have a slight nagging toothache which is making me feel grumpy which I keep hoping will go away as i'm scared of dentists and begrudge paying for treatment from my hard earned cash, Denis Healy former Labour Chancellor of the 70's Wilson and Callaghan Government's in his autobiography said his teeth kept playing him up in times of stress and said come the revolution he would advise people to have all their teeth pulled out I now tend to agree with him.
