Makes this smack head a suitable judge of what is or is not good literature?
Lily Allen to judge Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction 2008
http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/books/article3036770.ece
OK it's their competition and they can choose who they like to be a judge but surely this will cast doubt over the merits of the winner. I know I will view it with a great deal of suspicion and will be unlikely to buy it because of this.

Well she's managed to convince a load of people that she is talented and hasnt made it due to being Keith Allen's daughter. That on its own is a world class piece of fiction which proves she is qualified to judge. whistle:

Who the f*ck is Keith Allen anyway? Some bit part actor from 'Enders? Well that's going to carry a lot of weight with the public then isn't it. noooo:

Maybe they who want her to judge - know far more than us mere mortals about what is good literature.
For Snoopy that would obviously be the back of the Bonio box.
For Barman the til receipts.

For Wenchy - anything to do with tat management and crafts
For DS - the history of razor blades - they are the only thing sharper than him

I am working on my next campaign as we speak.
Some thieving git keeps nicking my milk from the staff kitchen area.
So I have gone and purchased another pint. Opened it and used a smidgeon (they never go for the unopened pint ) and then I have poured loads of salt in it and shaken it in. As I sit not far fom the kitchen area I await the uncloaking of the offender this afternoon.

I, on the other hand, am dubious as to the authenticity of that statement, given the company you admit to keeping!
Now that's what I call splitting an infinitive!

I am older and wiser (which roughly translates, that I can't neck it down like what they does).
Off for a Youngs now.
-
I see no split infinitive. You are using "keeping" in some continuous sense.
OK, hat, coat etc.

Is this not an infinitive what's been splitted?:
I, on the other hand, am dubious as to the authenticity of that statement, given the company you admit to keeping!
In that sentence, I have inserted stuff between I and am, thus splitting the infinitive (as in to boldly go) - or am I being thicker than usual?
-
Yes you are, I am is not an infinitive. The am bit is derived from the infinitive "to be". OK?

Never good when they say that. Fingers crossed that she lasts till after Christmas. Poor Mrs Snoops. I will be thinking of her.

Same here. People often say "Mr Nick is coming to visit. Be prepared for the worst." Odd that.
