Good morefternoon, all.

Sad, even if not unexpected, news about Derek Draper. He was younger than me too.

Good afternoon.

And if I haven't been in here since the event, a very Happy New Year to you all.

Rats leaving the sinking ship...

If I'm not here, then I'll be in the library. Or the other library.

The real point is that this change (though arguably the end objective remains the same) was publicly announced several months ago.

I don't know why certain left wing people have tried to present it as brand new today, but it is not honest.

"Are they booing me?"

"Errr...no, they're saying 'Boonak'."




[Edited because instead of 'booing' I wrote 'boing', which made me laugh]

I know we're not supposed to speak ill of the dead and all that but from what I remember wasn't he supposed to be a massive dickhead? I recall his colleagues gleefully putting the boot in when he inevitably came a cropper as a result of his greed and ego.

You can certainly claim that he paid for his youthful sins in later life, though.
