Ohhh... I did say I was going to bed, and then I started thinking about string quintets. I really am going now.  Well, I agree with what you said about those by Mozart (and not necessarily for the reason that you might just have assumed!)... |

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAh.
NOT happy.
Just back from a trip to my local '24-hour' supermarket. I went there to purchase some ingredients what would form part of a walnut soup, and maybe some curry after that. But it was closed. This is the *last time* I get ****ed over by that bloody supermarket. Only: I don't really have much of a choice otherwise.
:/
Just about to dial up some folks to arrange about getting some cuisine Indian delivered to my door...

From what I remember, Inko, Easter Sunday is one of the very few days on which even 24 hour supermarkets close.

Only if there's two pairs of silk stockings and an orange thrown in as well.

I've been a fairly happy bunny today until I just heard the latest bright idea from our Government on the News. They are now investigating the possibility of making it illegal to display cigarettes in shops, thereby raising the alternative of selling them under the counter. What utter hypocrisy! They are more than happy to rake in tax from the sale of cigarettes and whack the price up every time a Budget comes along, while at the same time chastising smokers for being modern day lepers and then banishing us outside. What next? What next? A tax on paper, of course, in order to cover those who buy certain products manufactured from that planet-destroying material for the purpose of rolling up illegal cigarettes. After that, since you mention not being a happy bunny on Easter Sunday, then doubtless a tax on rabbits and chocolate (not to mention the kind of packaging that usually accompanies the latter). And perhaps an extension of the lifetime gift part of inheritance tax so that each trackable instance of a composer giving one of his/her scores to anyone is deemed by HMRC to be a PET (Potentially Exempt Transfer) chargeable to tax at 40% unless the donor survives for a minimum of seven full fiscal years following the gift - and so on and so off. What a subject for Easter! Grrr!!! |

Or, better still, "brownout" is less of an issue of electrical power failure than one of electoral necessity (if you can see the difference); the Darling Budgets of March may embrace yet more danger than the Ides of May. That said (and to return to Mort's specifically expressed concern), it might not be a bad idea if the tax on inhalation is fixed at a rate equivalent to that on exhalation... |
