OK. I get 10 points for winding Jim up about MacColl, 5 for gloating over Michaels extremist views being frowned upon by serious rational people and a further 5 for dragging Vin Garbutt into it. I lose 20 points for making a serious point somewhere in all this. Bugger. Jim, don't try to analyse the village idiot. It's far nicer to laugh at him than to try to take him seriously. If I took him seriously, as my good friend Musket did for a while, you end up throwing up in a bucket. Far better to look forward to reading him embarrassing himself. Anyway, he seems to have a purpose now, comforting Michael.
