I can't remember how to start a new fred, so I'll just put this here.
I knew joining the Dull Men's Club Group on FB would come in handy. Thanks to a post there, I've just been able very easily to work out that I'm 23,421 days old! You can do it too: http://www.calculator.net/date-calculat ... &x=53&y=22

I think it was washed away with the semen taste thread.
Motherfuckers - it was criminal what was wiped; also at TAF. Fucking OBC.
I can, if you give me permission, provide an illustration of your epic gluttony.
Go on then
Great night it was too. Except for the herd of cattle, schools of prawns and half the Woodstock inventory one or two dozen of us grateful guests of Scott's demolished. After dindin some of us took it upon us to terrorise whoever happened to be online at Rationalia. That was a hoot too.

So you talk about mobs and the working classes as if they were the question. You've got that eternal idiotic idea that if anarchy came it would come from the poor. Why should it? The poor have been rebels, but they have never been anarchists; they have more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all. Aristocrats were always anarchists. - G.K. Chesterton

By way of explanation, I retired in 2009, and in 2013 I signed up for a year at the local university campus, to learn some Gaelic. I enjoyed it so much that I stayed for four years, and completed a BA degree in Gaelic Language and Culture. I enjoyed that so much that I've applied for a PhD, and I should hear tomorrow whether I'm in. In addition to that, all along the line I've been continuing with my work as a humanist celebrant, doing weddings and funerals. So, I might still be busy. But it's nice to be back, and I'll be here whenever I can.

I'm guessing that would have been book 2.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.
