The Brazil Nut.
Obo was remarkably cagey about revealing the new project he was involved in when he decided to give up blogging to concentrate on his new life.
We might have guessed that it was something to do with politics – and women – but Brazil?
“It can’t get any worse if you vote for me,” is his slogan, delivered with a wide smile and both hands held up in a V-for-victory sign.
What has British politics lost?

I’ve just lost about 5 solid minutes on this article and I haven’t even read yet.
Not wasted time, not at all.

Not too long ago I left a client in Queensland, Ox, en route v=for Brazil.
As I left Ox, he asked me send him some “stuff” from Brazil regarding Ipanema.
At Sao Paulo Airport I bought a string Brazilian Bikini ( in the form of their flag) and several Brazilian copies of Playboy, Penthouse plus a two little packets of tissues.
The package arrived in Oz , accompanied by a tea of Police and social workers, he spent several days denying me, false address and name on the package.
I thin I might be banned or be under secondary control in Oz, these days.
I am frightened to return though, I believe in NZ, I may be welcomed in some antipodean landings.

Obo, the genius who turned Tourettes Syndrome into an art-form.

I was wrong then. I guessed his slogan would be “cunts.”

Mr Smudd has just glanced over his shoulder and caught sight of this thread’s spectacular photo-illustration. I’m sure I heard him mutter something along the lines of “I’m not a trained gynaecologist but I’d be happy to take a look”.
Whatever can he mean?

I’ve just asked Mr Smudd to repeat what he said and apparently it was “I’ve got a sprained minor orifice but I’m happy to read this book.”
Phew! I know he’s a martyr to his Chalfonts so I’ll not question him further.

I knew it! Just knew he was up to something involving women and politics. Great research Anna.

If that’s the er…face of Brazilian politics then you can’t blame him really.

Good luck to Obo, if he’s escaped this rotten country.
