Maybe catching up on some Reading / Sleep / Shopping / Work. Except for the reading I had to catch up on the rest.

Nearly a 1000 threads and 6000 posts in 9 weeks has been a tiring exercise and a good start for a new forum.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)

Strewth, I pop to the loo for 5 minutes and everyone's up in arms.

Actually, it's the maid's week off, and it's taken me a wee while to figure out how the toaster works. Now that I know I shan't starve, I shall be back posting.
