That's what I thought. Two idiots, facing off over a chess board. Trump is eating the pieces, Maduro is licking the board.

The Crab With The Golden Claws. I was absolutely drawn in by it, despite my Dad hating comics. And teaching in Zimbabwe? What a fantastic way to challenge yourself. Massive, massive kudos.

My much-loved Nana bought me a book on holiday and... that was it. A lifelong obsession. How did you get to Flanders's? What roads led there?

Hey. Thanks for this. I've tried Catholicism, and tried hard to bend my head around it, but as much as I like what you say - the veneration of a Universal Mother - there's other stuff that just doesn't sit right.

I am now massively interested in this and you've given me a lot of stuff to research. Why does the church think it's heretical?

I'm starting to not give the tiniest toss about normality. They may as well be talking about the nightlife on Mars.

Listen to your body and your head. Pull the plug when you need to, because your personal circuit going 'pop' isn't useful to anyone. Least of all you.

I'm absolutely geriatric and have lost a lot of animals. It never stops hurting like a bastard and I'm sorry.
