Who said the following quotes (same person)and they are two chosen from many of theirs My chances of being PM are about as good as the chances of finding Elvis on Mars, or my being reincarnated as an olive. Sometimes I can think of so many ways of expressing myself that I feel I'm an old typewriter, and too many keys come forward at once - and I get jammed. Boris ? None other

5.9 trillion miles is equal to 94951296000000 kilometres
sounds like it could be the distance of the Earth’s orbit around the sun, give or take a few yards.

A little bit about Klaus Barbie. We had an old friend, Roger from Villeurbanne who was imprisoned in Lyon during the war. When we used to holiday with him, his Daughter and family, if Roger heard a German voice too close, he would go to his caravan and stay there until he felt it safe to come out. One year he went home as a German family were just two emplacements away and he just could not stand to hear their voices. I explained to the German family why Roger had gone home and they were honestly truly upset.

The keyboard on my I-Pad went into mini mode and I forgot how to normalise it and I lost interest in trying to make sense.
