stephen, thanks for the offer. if i ever get over there i'll take you up
on it. meanwhile, back at the ranch ....
tonto, not knowing that the lone ranger aspired to the poetics of
jeremy prynne, mistakenly composed a para-rhymed sonnet in the style of
geoffrey hill. this had the result that tonto was excommunicated from
the anglo-catholic fellowship & simultaneously declared
persona-non-grata in academic circles, holiday periods excepted.
(someone important had slept too much after reading a collected of mr
gh)
the ghosts of w.h.auden & t.s.eliot appeared & pronounced that this was
'deemed good' & in the meantime the uk & us governments carried on with
policies of mass murder which everyone agreed was fine.
as for myself - i went over to the local this afternoon & had a couple
of pints - on the way back i mistakenly bought a bottle of cider -
beware, beware - when i got back i opened it & it exploded covering
myself & three parts of my sitting room in somerset's finest. oh the
dylan thomas effects.
good luck with the bicycle.
regards
david
