On a more serious note - when Prez Obama was over here, we were hearing how much David Cameron and he had the whole love-in thing.
Yet..... here.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-13845025 Cameron refers to Obama as just that....Obama.... well.... I don't know about you but if I've got a new 'best friend' who also happened to be Prez of the US of A.... I wouldn't naturally refer to him by his surname. I know this is all a bit neuro-linguistic -programming, but does make me think Cameron (acceptable, he's not my friend) doesn't really rate Mr Obama (he's not my friend, but I'll happily show him some respect) as if he did he wouldn't just refer to him by his surname.
Oh, and if Mr Obama is reading this, I'm in the US in August, you around? Would love to pop in for a G&T.
