Thanks Mike that did make me laugh out loud.
Me too. I have had been "subjet to a discussion" on the drive home after parties. You know the one where you get to listen and say, Yes dear,....... a lot. Apparently it is a VERY VERY VERY BAD THING to share my knowledge of trains space technology etc at parties as it is so terminally boring playing Winifred Atwell on the sound system is a complete booze soaked rave by comparision. So I sit with a fixed grin as some one recounts, starting with that dreaded intro "You'll be interested in this" UFO theories, why the moon landing is a fake, it was the oil companies who fixed steam trains and cars, there was a guy with a water powered car you know, the USA spent a billion on biros for space and the USSR used pencils, etc, etc.
You can drink a lot of Sauvingion Blanc while trying to blot such things out.
Appologies to the Moderators I'll let it go now
