Wot? Why time of course; and this was brought home to us today as we drove past a pub** displaying a huge poster encouraging all who passed-by to book their table early for Christmas meals. I guess that would be lunch and/or dinner? Do folk still differentiate between lunch and dinner these days? Or is it just whatever ‘time for food’ now?
Anyhoo, isn’t it amazing how time just rushes by us? Almost Christmas and it seems like only yesterday it was just the third of September. Give it a couple o’ weeks and it’ll be time to grab an Easter egg or two I guess.
Finally, and a little late to the disaster table, here’s James Gregory talking about the media and storms in the States. As they say, Face piles of trials with smiles... and our friends across the pond are right good at that.
** You remember the old Andy Capp cartoon? Flo and Andy are on a coach tour and the driver announces, “To your left, we’re now passing the old Kings Head.” To which Andy Capp shouts, “Why?”
Quote; Kin Hubbard.
“Don’t knock the weather; nine-tenths of the people couldn’t start a conversation if it didn’t change once in a while.”
