....that Margaret Thatcher resigned.

I remember the day well and how we went out that night raise a drink to her going. Not missed her for a day since.

Anyone else remember that day?

I don't particularly have any soft spot for maggie, and she certainly made her mistakes, but its easy to vilify the tough decisions she made and forget about the absolute shambles the UK was in before the tories came to power.

Where I'm from Rose West has a better rep. When I worked in Guildford I was amazed at the amount of people who thought she was great...

Amazing!

Nice that you had a job.

I was unemployed and driving back my dad's truck the the quarry to shovel gravel into plastic sacks for a bit of pocket money when I heard it on the radio.

Cheered me up nicely though.
