Don't take offence at any comments Mr Dramatist. There are those here who are pretty blunt but don't mean to sound rude, those who like a luagh and then those like Bruce and George who are just old and easily confused
You should be ashamed. Living in New Zealand has coarsened your sensibilities. Too many stubbies and overcooked steaks from the Barbie is known to have this effect.
Bruce and I provide a much needed gravitas to this forum as is generally acknowledged, and for your information Bruce's intellect is unimpaired, as is mine. A less than perfect control of my bladder is the only sign of my increasing age. I cannot speak for Bruce but I would certainly opt for steering him away from my wife's embroidered cushions. Just as a precaution you understand.
