Well, I went the whole hog the next day, which must mean I deserve everything I get!
Many thanks for the felicitations - gratefully accepted as I struggle with repointing this crumbling edifice and wrestle with an OU essay on counter-culture in the Sixties and realise that I'm possibly turning into Ann Widdecombe (with a faint dusting of lime). Aargh!
Roll on Sidmouth, and we hope to see as many of you there as can make it!
