Intermission

Off to Hereford for a few days soon to get cold cheeks, have fun, be hale, hearty, rusticated and conspicuously Northern. We may even make it over to Hay if the sun shines.

Hope to return with ideas clever and/or useful as available a bit later in Firework Fortnight, the traditional British festival of being fourteen, drinking cider on street corners and messing with pyrotechnics to show just how invulnerable you are.

Until then, play nice and don't get in the papers like last time. Oh and forget about house-breaking too- we are protected and have nothing you want.
