Well, we have had “Biddygate” (what happened to Sue by the way? I bet that was her, she should get canned for that), we have had Cleggmania and David Cameron has been out in his running shorts ( I bet he had a crafty fag after that shot was taken in Blackpool, they do that those Eton boys).
We´ll be up watching the UK general election, just because its so addictive (bring back John Snow and his Swingometer we say). And we´ll also be having a bet on the outcome. It ups the ante a bit, don´t you think. There are plenty of weird and wonderful bets that you can have a punt on- here are some of the more interesting ones we have found (interesting ones in bold 8for us anyway)
