RESULT, your getting mellower by the year A

 

Tully,

 

Not really - my wife and colleagues say I get grumpier by the year!

 

But I do like to try to get things right and I am always willing to listen to logical argument. I don't know why the show was classified as it was but your arguments for changing it were sound. I hope the entries justify the change.

You go with that idea but last year you did'nt go with my free hookers and beer idea, its all politics :(

 

WDS,

 

I personally gave your suggestion full consideration but my wife who holds the 'purse strings' for the Northern Fair ruled it out as both too costly and a little too exciting for me at my advanced age!

 

However my colleague ( Plus Twos) who has financial responsibility in the South and as you can see from his writing in Irish Countrysports and Country Life magazine, has a rather more liberal attitude, rather likes the idea and he says if you supply the girls he will supply the beer!

 

Though it still would appear to be North/South politics to me!
