I'm not denying that he is clever
but suggesting that he couldn't build a spacecraft that would particularly well.

NASA can't and they've got more money and experience.

Maybe the point is that many people who announce they're going to write a novel
don't manage to do that very well either.
I am not suggesting this is true of Apeface, of course.

This was pretty much my point

You're probably right
As I said, I don't expect success. But I guess, considering I have a pretty well-developed idea, I'd better give it a shot. If something comes of it, ace. Basically, I'm more smug now at finally starting something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Sort of like when you manage to give up smoking, or pull the bloke you've been after for weeks :o)

If you have an idea for a novel
and you want to do it, then do it. If you enjoy doing it, you've already achieved success on one level.

I note the following were not ruled out:
1. piece of straw in mouth at all times
2. yokel hat worn a jaunty angle
3. sit at desk on hay bale
4. 'a' and 'r' keys worn out on keyboard from replying, 'aaarrr' to most e-mails
