Fair enough but I thought it was implied that it was things that were decided by me.

This is all too deep for me.

And it is not even 3 pm.

I just got out of bed to pump ship. Now I have had a pot of coffee and two litres of mango juice and pretty soon will have to start again.

Then I will go back to bed. This tear arsing around is alright for you kids, but I need my sleep.

Perhaps it’s a subconscious thing or the voices in our heads.

I’m getting him a subscription for The Guardian. That should do the trick.

Hmm, best to not annoy him too much. He’ll probably close this place down and we’d have to run around the internet trying to find a new place to disagree with each other.
