You all just think you're so clever don't you.  sad24:
Quote

        "You are old, father William," the young man said,
           "And your hair has become very white;
        And yet you incessantly stand on your head--
           Do you think, at your age, it is right?"

        "In my youth," father William replied to his son,
           "I feared it might injure the brain;
        But, now that I'm perfectly sure I have none,
           Why, I do it again and again."

        "You are old," said the youth, "as I mentioned before,
           And you have grown most uncommonly fat;
        Yet you turned a back-somersault in at the door--
           Pray what is the reason for that?"

        "In my youth," said the sage, as he shook his grey locks,
           "I kept all my limbs very supple
        By the use of this ointment - one shilling a box--
           Allow me to sell you a couple?"

        "You are old," said the youth, "and your jaws are too weak
           For anything tougher than suet;
        Yet you finished the goose, with the bones and the beak--
           Pray, how did you manage to do it?"

        "In my youth," said his father, "I took to the law,
           And argued each case with my wife;
        And the muscular strength, which it gave to my jaw,
           Has lasted the rest of my life."

        "You are old," said the youth, "one would hardly suppose
           That your eye was as steady as ever;
        Yet you balanced an eel on the end of your nose--
           What made you so awfully clever?"

        "I have answered three questions, and that is enough,"
           Said his father. "Don't give yourself airs!
        Do you think I can listen all day to such stuff?
           Be off, or I'll kick you down stairs.

Work, nah! don't have the time. Up till 02h00 working on Poster for upcoming Talks, also sending out finished newsletter and inserts for printing, sending faxes to wholesaler for delivery tomorrow at 05h00, bad night, musical beds (Don't ask) and woken just before the alarm went of with violent cramp. That made todays Walk Leaders course interesting. Now home have just phoned mayor, to get permission for  a coffee morning at The mansion house only to be told to get stuffed, as they are fully booked till late 2008, and to write in to get on the waiting list for next years Mayor elect, (if he keeps his seat in after the elections in May). What fun.  Must crack on with the constitution and bank account details for new group being inaugurated on Thursday.  eeek:

Dear Mr. Wilson.

We once again have to apologise for writing to offer our newest product. It appears that the previous - ahem - correspondence regarding your death in 1987 didn't quite make it to our busy mailing department.

We assure you that every effort will be made to avoid troubling you again.  However, given the fact that we are very busy people and information does occasionally slow down on the rounds, we would ask you to disregard any further communications from us for the next year - or so.

We value our customers and always put them first... etc.,
