Quickly isn't a word that you can apply to A2K these days. People are leaving in droves.

Droves of Dutch Imams are leaving the country. They are being replaced by more extreme clerics Dutch Muslim officials have warned.

Warned about my car being illegal, I took it to the garage. Now it's forbidden for me to use it and it looks like a crestfallen sheepdog.

Sheepdog trials were a must watch before they banned them because they were such a beautiful metaphor. I used to like it best when the sheep scattered in all directions.

Directions are needed when driving from one city to another city in a foreign country. A good road map is therefore an essential requirement.

Requirement of the law that all people working with children up to 16 be vetted is an extremely expensive undertaking, and is putting families here off hosting foreign teenagers in the summer. This is harming my business.

Business is a legal form of ambush. It is capitalism's inward soul expression.

Expression of sentiments I don't really understand but I don't believe anyway, since business is the earliest form of human transaction after bodily functions have been satisfied. Business works on a goal of win-win.

Win-win Walmsley was a very nice woman, but had an unfortunate stammer. Christened Winifred of course, when asked her name all she could manage was "Win", but often said it twice.

Twice you've posted today, McTag, and I wish you top of the morning and great anticipation of snow to come. Trust you and the Missus are well today.

Today I think I was mildly admonished by a lady who doesn't believe something she doesn't understand. But I do not complain as such things are in the nature of a lady's graciousness.

Graciousness is a delightful virtue, it makes both the winner and the loser appear to be better than they are, and smooths the passage for everyone. I will endeavour to be gracious.

Gracious ladies are much more interesting than slappers. They represent something of a challenge.

Challenge is a word used by media persons to be politically correct when they mean bloody hopelessly unpleasant, like being visually challenged rather than blind. Such linguistic tropes are easy to mock.

Mock tropes as you wish but don't forget "lady" and "gentlewoman" are tropes. If you choose which tropes to mock you provide a guide to your inner thoughts.

Thoughts on friendship. A simple friend has never seen you cry, a real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.

Tears in a stocking can be mended with a little nail varnish. That used to be the prevailing wisdom when I was a girl.

Forbid smoking in restaurants was demanded by non-smokers for a long time.. Now at long last the Government has stepped in and banned smoking in all eating establishments.
