As I have pointed out in my analysis in comparison to some of their past gatherings at the Ramada Hotel the Ulster Unionists didn't have a ding dong today. Instead the Cameron show came and went remarkably smoothly.
With all the talk of new inclusive unionism, it left an old conference observer yearning for some of the no holds barred personal assaults on the opposition which you used to be guaranteed at party conferences here.
So thank you Danny Kennedy for your winding up speech, which included the following suggestions for new releases which just might make the Christmas charts.
"Catriona Ruane's re-release of Pink Floyd's "We don't need no education" - That's on the Columbia label.
Jeffrey Donaldson & Gelly Kelly, the two Junior Ministers duetting on the old Rolf Harris number "Two Little Boys"
Peter Robinson and Martin McGuinness with their rendition, "He Ain't a Heavy, He's My Brother"
Nigel Dodds cover of the old Buck's Fizz hit - "Making your mind up" - which might be the DUP's Eurovision entry
Rev William McCrea - his interpretation of the old country & western standard - "Still Crazy after all these years"
Baroness Paisley - "Here's to you Mrs Robinson"
Alec Maskey and the SF reps on the Policing Board - "Every Step You Take, Every Move You Make, I'll Be Watching You"
I'm
