Nobody in the least cares or is
surprised. On the road. The turkey has
landed. Declaring the end of major
combat. Feverish speculation on his
health. Will be dry but there will
be rain. The dollar slumped. They may
pull out. Twice as likely. The factory
farming. No. No. No. No. Abandoned
a plan to bury the entire stock.

Jury
is told. Fresh boost
to sector. Invent ways
to
discuss. Pushing some
measures. Face revolt
on two
fronts. There are
new rights. A bitchy
night. Probe
into
funds. Landscape
threatened. The
national
veto. Stopped
outside.

Velvet
coup. Flash
of solar
darkness. Show
of
unity. On
offensive.
Feel-
good spree.
Cut clothes. Red
deer cull. 'Should
die'. The
total
number.

Art world's
smoothest
man. Life will
never. Bloodless
revolution. A
rare
moment of
national
pride. To be
announced. Its
entire
committee
resigned. Rained.

Was published as
police. All
are
understood. Bank
on rain. Choose out-
rages. Someone's
sleep is inter-
rupted. Devils
of us
all.

The Big
Eye. Beat
it. Where was
the Texan? Free
speech on
trial. Ditching
views. Its
covert
level. Deal
with it.

Gated co-
mmunity ju-
bilee. The
Dragon
roars. The
great
escape. 16
thousand police
officers. A lone
protester. Sniper. The
Old Bailey
was told.

'Of course,
when you are
moving
at warp speed
there isn't
a lot
of time
to think
about
what
you've heard.'
Another briefcase. Eye
on the pulse. Ally
in poll
threat. But
this is. First
step to put. New
face. 'Do
companies really
care?' Nothing
is repeated.

How the great went
stale. Illness, de-
pression, perfection and
fame. May switch to
Tory. Shopping ex-
travaganza. Public
humiliation. Apology and
costs. Only
England
expects.

A two-
man killing
machine. Number
one drug-
maker. Gales
or severe
gales. Meet
the white
soul. Fear and
loathing life-
style. Explosion
in body. May
be allowed
to stay. 'They
think it
worth it.' Whistleblower
charged. Radically
altered every
aspect.

Coteries of gay
courtiers. A
cover-
up. A
Catholic
state. Real
damage, fence
damage. Scrambles
for new
approach. She
was delighted.

'Invite others in-
to
meaning.' I
believe
all toddlers. Cuts
rainforest
funding. ID

'Money has
an enormous
voice.' Here
comes
trouble. Pupils re-
design
school. The day
they
disappeared. Record
as a
minister. A
car bomb
devastated. You
say. We
suggest. Dis-
mantling
deal
is
broken.

Complete weekend. Job
offer widens
rift. Royal mirror stories
leak. Exit. He denied
any
rift. He had lost
his
enthusiasm. To celebrate we invited
our top.

News that
stays. Ultimate
insult. Without
the dust
jacket. Women
who really
serve tea. Spitting
is still. I
was there. Poor
weather
could
curtail. Risks
jail for not
naming. Failing
drug test. He said
he wanted. Nano-
tubes, nano-
particles, nano-
moment.

Can you
remember
what it was
about? Brown
anger at
blocking
move. Sur-
prisingly
arbitrary.
Dialogue is
cliched. PM
always appoints
one woman.

Problem putting food
on the table. What does this
man do
for a living? Defiant despite
deadliest strike. Con-
secration splits church, takes
pulse. The film that
never was. Hits new
heights. Claimed progress in.

Where the railways went
wrong. Twenty years of
modern art. Spy on and
photograph
activists. On chats
with the boss. Search
for a way
to take over
Google. The rise and
decline. Don't
lose
your head.

Wreck on the
road. It doesn't
have to be
so far. Mirror
image. Something
of tonight
about him. Fierce
rebuke exposes
rift between. On
the verge.

I will lead. May yet
issue. The one
fears. Greeted
with cheers. He now believes
the injection
is safe. Fed dairy
products. Send more
tourists to
Europe.

Exit
the man. Stage
is set. Movers and
shakers. Best foot
forward. Chin
up. Head down....
'A new dark age.'
Bred in misery.
Denied he had
quit. Brings

All the cruel
festivity of
an execution
crowd. Allies fear
humiliation. A wet
start. Economic re-
bound. Tighten Iraqi
border. An attempt
to resolve
a dispute. Crackdown
during dawn raids.
He
is grooming his
favourite.

48-hour ultimatum.
Reneages on pledge. Rebels.
Standing by in his
decision. Shifts
nuclear line: first strikes
against 'rogue
states'. All targets in
a violent day
of resistance.
