      and I bet you emulate
      Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

      Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

          No. My family’s German though. Jawohl.

            Shh! I gave you the address but I didn't tell you to invite your friends!

              How refreshing to converse with a fine top-hatted gentleman such as yourself.

              I am geographically situated at 51 degrees North of the equator and less than one degree west of the Greenwich Meridian to which you eloquently refer in your opening post.

              I am happy to report that the lingering white precipitation is beginning to thaw and that our feathered friends are enjoying the fine fare that I laid out for their culinary consideration.

              The televisual device is churning out the usual cheery mixture of antiques and property programmes and today's 'Bargain Hunt' contestants are Mo and Jo, whose names, when pleasingly adjuncted in the correct order, cast a magic spell over this winter wonderland.

              I am working today which has the delightful consequence of generous remuneration, and I look forward to the common enjoyment of quizzery in the local public house this evening, where a fine ale or two will help to oil the mental cogs.

              A good day to you!

                    No, but I work from home. I'm normally quite disciplined about keeping the telly off, but Mr k2p2 is also at home today and he likes it on.
