I’ve found the answer. Not sure precisely what the question is, but the answer is painfully obvioius, simple, elegant and achieved by a laterality of thinking that would make Edward de Bono proud. London is the centre of the world. Well, certainly of my world. And, according to reports, of many other people’s too. So – Read More-

I had to attend a funeral yesterday afternoon. It was a horrible day, wet, cold and bleak. And standing on some little patch of desolate countryside in the northern reaches of the borough of Enfield as poor Uncle Charlie was laid to rest, all was fairly miserable and gloomy.

Can you split an infinitive? Can you actually pray ‘boldly’ as opposed to humbly, sincerely, smirkingly, fires of hellishly? Who cares?

Barak and David Cameron, flirting with each other and with Helle Thorning-Schmidt, Danish – Read More-
