that link, Gervase, even though it does display a sort of life I can hardly relate to, seems to be a prime example of a pattern of thinking I often seem to see in English comedy, where non-sequiturs and almost random direction changes paint an image of life with no 'transition' between events...like tearing all the pages from a book and reading them is random order...some will seem to be related, and conversations will have 'focus' for a bit on anyone page...but then BOOM!,,,off in a new direction for no apparent reason.It can have moments of very quaint, fascinating amusement, but then veer away with no follow-up, as if it is all irrelevant.
I guess you DO have to live it to follow it,,*shrug*...
Two countries divided by a common language, indeed, hmmm?
