    A whole degree summed up in two sentences.

    Pretty to look at and about as significant as a fart in a jacuzzi.

    Ah diddums. You seem to have had a bad experience in the City.
    Was that when you were living in luxury in Hyde Park?

    The City has been around for 400 years and will still be around when your insignificant remains have turned to dust.

    HTH
