This is going to cause some conflict in the Foxtrot household
The missus is a conservationist and will doubtless blame my people for this destruction of plant life

Does Mrs Foxtrot like her bush unkempt?

I will not dignify your perversity with a response, save for this;
a) it's MS Foxtrot, that's very important
b) 5-3 (aggregate)

I think in most circles, that would be considered a response.

True, I was responding to him
But without answering his question. Is it still an answer if I reply but without addressing said question?

Probably not an answer.
But it was still a response. Which you said you wouldn't provide.

This is quite a common thing for local councils to do.
My conservation group was asked to remove the lower branches from all the trees on a local picnic site in direct view from a busy A road (near MK). The local shirt lifters were then in full view of the speeding commuters. It didn't put them off their stroke, and there were more complaints when we had finished our work.
