therealpmI am not certain that Adonis is entirely right in the head. Moving an elected House of Lords away from Britain's legal, financial and cultural capital will simply serve to nullify any influence it may gain by being democratically elected and will only serve to contribute to the elected dictatorship of the commons.

*shuffles over a bit to get John's glass, pours the port, then calls up a function from The Machine to translocate the bottle out of John's ken.*

It's... a text.
From Sally.
She says not to let you get up to anything she wouldn't do.
*sips drink*
I leave it entirely up to you to determine the extent of behaviour covered by that description.

See? It's a very good thing I stuck around.

Date: 2012-04-21 12:46 am (UTC)Fine
*ahem*
*takes another sip of port to sooth throat*
John, as you may be aware, there have been some rather tense negotiations over Britain's loan to the IMF recently, and as such I am afraid I may have taken my eye off the tabloid ball. Sally's doing what?
*pinches bridge of nose*

Date: 2012-04-21 12:58 am (UTC)...Paddy Ashdown might be quite a good choice for an exercise video, come to think of it.
*blinks and mentally replays that last sentence*
*sips port*
I suspect he and Sally would not get on well.

*Opens the door as quietly as possible and reaches inside for blankets*
*Tip-toes back to Peter with blankets*
*John covers Peter with the blankets*
*Peter curls up so he is more comfy under the blankets. His movements startle John who backs away quickly, causing him to knock over an empty glass.*
*John promptly tells it to "shhh!"*
*John catches himself telling an inanimate object to be quiet and realises he's probably not in a fit state to apparate home. Instead, he reaches out to try and get one of the blankets from Peter so he can sleep in the chair*
*Peter grumbles in his sleep and holds on tightly to all the blankets*
*John thinks for a moment then sneaks back onto the sofa by Peter's feet and gets under the covers too. He falls asleep*
