Photo for Uncle Joe.

Thought you'd like to see the people of Perth out in force to welcome Maggie Thatcher back in 1983. Such a popular lady she wasn't.

Far from it - she wrecked it. However, now she's down below, stoking the fiery furnace and using Arthur's coal for fuel - Oh the irony of it !!!

Well there's little doubt that the Thatcher government wrecked the dead man walking that successive labour governments and Conservative governments weakened by union stupidity, greed, and control by the USSR that had sprung into existence.

The necessary actions that she took did indeed result in unemployment blackspots and communities dependant on huge subsidies from the UK taxpayers suddenly facing their feather bedded industries shut down - and rightly so.

But the across the board reforms not least putting trade unions in their place returned the UK to health.

I doubt very much she stoking the fiery furnace . She is up with Angels, and so she should be only place for such a supreme woman .

However, if by the totally remotest chance she is , she is saving a special place for you , to stoke up the boilers . She would probably think that is all you good for.

Re: Photo for Uncle Joe.

Now there's a thought, Joe and Maggie spending an eternity together either upstairs or downstairs. Sparks would certainly be flying..

A big No Entry notice on the door, while they battled it out..
