Only for the moment. As George Meredith so sweetly put it, "love dies".


Even the euphoric froth of the instant, assuming it's not as unilateral is it looks, will soon be tinged with the workaday details of life's grim carnival. There are children to think of or, at least, their cost. And, as is the case in every transient fit of human happiness, lawyerly shadows will be balefully gathering to await their inevitable offerings. It's all very well to dream of skipping hand in hand from the brewerly gloom of a scented cellar to build a new life amongst nature's bounty, but past experience, if not the by-laws, suggests the attempt will swiftly sunder the stoutest of romantic bonds, whether forged by Cupid's deceitful darts or the barmaid's dispensations.


I may be wrong. Perhaps this episode represents a miraculous new beginning from which all concerned will emerge into a brighter future, replete with shining prospects on near horizons. And though history, as far as I have read it, admits no precedent, history is written by cynics.

DDM, you use the term 'partner', do I take it then you are not married to the mother of your children?


If that's the case it rules out the most obvious course of action, that of a father-in-law horse-whipping you on the steps of your club.


It's a pity of course, but there's nothing to be done about it.

Errrr, was that anything to do with you declaring your undying love for her on a local public internet forum?

Please don't tell me you asked her to sit up and beg...

    • Unless they were wearing school uniform with name tags otherwise children do change their clothes you know. 
    • I'd also recommend Silvano for anyone in the area looking to learn automatic, having just passed first time with 5 minors. He's a very patient teacher and ensured I learned how to drive safely above all. 
    • You don't need to do the research. I had to know the numbers as a TV buyer. I analysed the potential advertising revenue and Channel Four didn't cover their costs. They had some nice 'Channel Four' signs when someone hit the ropes but, In all honesty, a lot a potential revenue was lost because most old knackers were pissed off because they couldn't perve at Carol Vorderman on 'Countdown'.       Sorry, cross-post. I was replying to Malumbu. Give me a minute, if you will. I listened to the first two sessions (today) on TMS and popped down to the pub for the evening one.   I do miss the days of Peter West, Richie Benaud and Tom Graveney on BBC2.   But, the BBC are at least putting on 'Today At The Test' on at around 7pm instead of after midnight.   And it was on the 10pm news.      
    • "PGC, do you reckon this 'Anderson -Tendulkar' series could make Tests a bit more interesting to the wider word?" Alas no. Until it comes back to terrestial telly, I think it will always suffer from elitism(?).  Excepting The Guardian, cricket is barely mentioned in other press. I am fortunate in that my daughter has just added me to her subscription on NOW TV. It has been great to watch this test; it really could have gone either way, eariler in the day, which always makes it more exciting. The only bugbear is that I am a TMS afficianado, and they are about eight deliveries ahead of the tv! I thought Tongue was excellent in mopping up the tailenders, and Duckett was a delight to watch. Bumrah and Jadeja were brilliant to see. I'm sure the Edgbaston crowd will have tremendous supporters for both sides. PS: I don't think Jofra will be back on the strength of one county wicket.
