Yes, he appears to have moved slightly to the left of the political spectrum recently. Must be the season of goodwill! Wink

Not much Xmas here in Malaysia, good.

For all my vices, I don't do spirits be they supernatural or bottled, and the only Glenn I know played and later managed my football team and England.

grahamb, on the other hand, seems no stranger to the bottom of a bottle.

A decent dram is no vice:

John Barleycorn was a hero bold,
Of noble enterprise;
For if you do but taste his blood,
'Twill make your courage rise.

Twill make a man forget his woe;
'Twill heighten all his joy;
'Twill make the widow's heart to sing,
Tho' the tear were in her eye.

"Remote" That depends on your perspective. In the winter when the boats are off I pray for the souls of those on the neighbouring island of Great Britain.
