just stick a second class stamp on and address it to 10 Downing Street. By the time it arrives he'll be living there.

Having answered countless letters from the public on behalf of Mininsters over the years , I think I can help you here. The simple answer is determined by asking what in capacity you are writing to him. This will get you the fastest reply, otherwise it'll be passed around the houses, and the poor bleeder that has to answer it will have 5 minutes instead of 5 days to do so.

If it's as leader of the Conservative Party, try Tory HQ:
30 Millbank, London, S1P 4DP

If it's as Leader of the opposition, try Parlaiment:
House of Commons, London SW1A 1AA

If it's as an MP, try his consituency office:
10 Bridge Street, Witney Oxon OX28 1HY

if it's plain old hate mail, try any of the above (but if you're going to put anything dodgy in with it, I'd avoid the HoC)

If it's not covered here, let me know and I'll try and find out.

If you are asking him out for a drink and "maybe more" can I suggest you avoid Clapham Common and Hampstead Heath.Im sure he will know far better venues.

Well...

I opened my trap earlier and basically a load of useless, un-thought-about words fell out onto my keyboard. I really should think before I speak.

To be dreadfully honest OI have no idea what I want to ask Mr C. I had this crazy idea in my head that it would just be nice to get a reply from him. Then I realised (with the help of Wolf) that it would be highly unlikely that a 'nobody' like myself would get a real honest reply.

But I decided this after I wrote it, which sorta sucks. But. This now gives me the opportunity to write in any questions that people on the Org. might, too, like answered?

My first draft letter asks the Man about his inspiration and stuff. Why does he get up in the morning etc. And the second idea was then to take inspiration from the reply (if any) and use it in photography... yeah I know. Sounds stupid, but you gotta try these things.

I don't know jack about Politics (and I will no doubt get a lesson or two now) but DC seems, in my rubbish knowledge, one of our only hopes ( I guess there are only 3 hopes, which makes his chance higher...)

He is young (ish) and his face isn't falling off. Plus I don't know who the leader of the Lib Dems. is?

Soooo... anything you guys would like me to pass on?

Ill post the finished letter. scribble away all...


Ben

I dont think he has an autobiography but have you tried some of the books written about him

http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss?...ameron&x=0&y=0

The first one does have his collaboration

If it's made from pears it's perry, not cider.

PS. I'm not even slightly sorry for the derail.

They probably got sick of answering "Perry? what's that?" "It's like cider only made from pears..." and considering their largest target market was chavs, they thought what the hell and called it pear cider. And its selling in greater quantities than perry ever did so they woz rite init.
