had some real life shit to mop up. b3ta was trés boring. Just drifted off. Seems my detractors can't let it go though. Never mind.
meanwhile:-
quote from the Times :)
At last some good news for us grumpy old men: we're not grumpy. It's official! A study by scientists in America has shown that older people have a more positive outlook than younger people. 'Older people have learnt to be less affected by negative information to maintain their emotional state,' says a researcher at Duke University in North Carolina.
When men or women of a certain age complain about some aspect of modern life - for example the decline in manners or publuc service - it's assumed that we do it only because we're just old and grumpy, when in fact we may be absolutely right.
This is a great day for grumpykind.
Yeah. I knew that already ;)
