We don't need Milk Snatcher, thanks- already have her illigitimate son, George Dubya.

Best, Greg

How about the bottom of the Atlantic, in order to cement the Special Relationship?

I had heard on BBC radio news that somewhere in the USA wanted the statue. I think that's a very good idea. Perhaps they would keep it.

I don't wish to be reminded of that woman.

Erect it as a warning. Paint it dull black. And vow to never make that mistake again.

Did you see the picture? Like some giant chess piece. Straight out of Harry Potter.

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: `Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear --
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.'

Thats a thought, if it was placed in Trafagar Sq, could we get Livingstone to life his ban on selling bird food ??

Yes its corn mixed with Ex-Lax !

Think laterally. I'm sure Mrs Thatcher would love to have her statue in the House of Commons as soon as possible. Since that isn't possible while she's still alive......

I have ideas for the composition and location that are not even appropriate for The Mudcat.

How about inside an aviary at London Zoo, that way the birds could decorate it appropriately all day. Jude

Avoiding the obvious quip about it being a bust

Debate (make that a yawn) on where to put the new statue of 'Er Indoors, rages (what else). For those not aware, it cannot be put in the House of Commons during her lifetime (mixed blessing?).

The where is secondary, the medium is all wrong. The marble should be cast iron, or at least the hands, one of iron the other of steal (ref school milk) and definitely not 16 tons.

That's my twopenn'th (any higher bids?)
