That sounds like a plan DK. Where's a good place to meet for pints these days?

In fairness I don't have the option as the lift is now out of order. It will be a while before I feel comfortable in *any* lift, to be honest.

She’s a cranky old lady these days, with 96k on the clock, but I’ve had immense pleasure from her and she’s still the most reliable user of she/her pronouns in my immediate circle.

I am sorry to read that, Mark. The last thing I wanted was a confirmation of a personal impression. I would have been happier to be contradicted. It has to be worth a last try (couples therapy maybe?) to try to change Mrs C’s mind. So much time together should not lightly be cast away. In the end though, if her mind is made up, you don’t want to be with someone who doesn’t want to be with you. Either way, good luck and I hope Peterson’s ideas help.

I know exactly what you mean. The standard greeting is a condescending insult that asserts the moral superiority of the Deep State minions. It infuriates me every time I see it, partly because it will cheerfully be ignored by anyone to whom it might apply. In fairness, I did not notice it at court.

Thank you. I only wish I could see the point of posting more often. I post to advocate for a better, freer, Britain. I have to believe there’s *some* prospect of that to summon up the will to do it.
