The strange world of Planet X

[excoriator]

You've probably enjoyed this magnificent work before Aubrey. I think I might have.

I was more interested in the strange world of the British class structure, rather more clearly depicted in the filem than that of Planet X.

I'd like to think we have overcome this strict societal stratification, but apparently an Eton and Oxford educated palpably inept buffoon is still deferred to by the average Brit.

Depressing isn't it!

I don't know this one. I'll have to look it up.

I wish I could say you'll enjoy it but honesty forbids. Hopefully it won't slow your recovery down too much though. Presumably progress is being made in that direction? Hope so anyway.

I'm avoiding doing anything sensible for Christmas, but have made a start by draping the grandfather clock in Christmas LEDs. Sadly, I am ordered to get a Christmas tree too. A Christmas clock is apparently no substitute although I think it would make an interesting change. I was hoping to add baubles but my granddaughter, who sees my point fully, has volunteered to loan me her toy hippopotamus instead of the angel to sit on top.

Hope you have a good one too Aubrey.

Who would have the temerity, the downright gall, to give you orders exco? I hope you told them to take their fairy lights and shove them where the sun doesn't shine. That's a steep shaft near the village of Slice in Lancre BTW It would probably be improved by the additin of some tasteful fairy lights. But they can't be soar powered.

Comments from she who must were not encouraging. We had both a christmas clock and a christmas tree. The clock adorned by a plastic hippo with an LED collar was much admired. More so than the tree although comparisons are odious.
