Headhunting?

[emony]

Other ex-Tory Cabinet ministers departing include Virginia Bottomley, who is to pursue a career in head-hunting.

Why does this give me a vision of the Rt Hon Ms Bottomley galloping about the countryside on horseback, wearing a black robe, carrying a scythe and lopping off the heads of unfortunate peasants as she cackles manically?

Too many eps of Highlander perhaps? *beg*

I've only ever seen the one ep, so it's not that, although from what I know of it, it'd be a good model for my vision of her *g*

I wish my elected officials were that cool. When they quit they go on talk shows.

Oh I don't doubt she'll be on a fair few of those too. Incidentally, Ms Bottomley is, for the next .. five days or so, until Parliament is prorogued (dismissed for the election), my MP.

Really? You've only ever seen one ep? How the heck did you get involved with a bunch of hardcore HL fans and not get indoctrinated into the fandom? *g*

But it so fits the image you've described. I was lol when I read it.

I didn't know I ever had. I guess I was just lucky *g*
