Nope, it's no good ... I just can't resist it...
I've been reading the BBC's coverage of the dead Pope and had to smirk at the fact that there are a number of books of condolence on the go for JP 2. It just makes me wonder two things; What do people write and who is it aimed at?
If it's for the Cardinals etc are you expected to write Dear Cardinal <insert suitable name here>, hope you get the job, love <insert own name here>. Alternatively if it's for the Pope himself is it good form to write: Dear Pope, Sorry you are still dead, love <insert tear-stained name here>.
It's also heartening to see that everyone's favourite legal terrorist Gerry Adams couldn't wait to muscle in on the act for a bit of free publicity. For a man who helpe murder so many British citizens over the last 30 years he really is pious isn't he? I'll be signing his book of condolence in urine when he finally does the world a favour ...
