I clicked on the icon, slightly off-centre, which takes me to a website called b3ta, where I clicked on a section called off topic, an offshoot of question of the week, another part of the site where members share their anecdotes for the amusement of other users. I notice that there has been a new thread posted by Mr Boyce, in which he wishes to discuss the relative merits of Charles Dickens. I immediately sat back in my blue office chair and pushed my overgrown fringe back out of my eyes and started to consider precisely what it is about Dickens that is so irritating. Having pondered for some time, I once again used my black and grey cordless mouse to move the small arrow on my screen across to click on the reply button, for indeed I had a point that I thought well worth making. But what is this point? I hear you ask. Well, sitting here dressed all in black in an office in Coventry, I put it to you that the man utilises far far too much detail in his books, rendering them utterly dull to anyone who tries to read them.
