Richard: You are not altogether a bad old stick, at that -- even if something of a poor old stuck-in-the-1960s leftie self-abuser.

But, dash my old boots, can you ever be bloody patronising! We will charitably put it down to that weary old bromide of a get·out, "an unfortunate manner", shall we?

But be so good as to bear in mind that you have absolutely no warrant even to think about patronising ME.

NONE

ABOUT ANYTHING

EVER
