I have it on good authority that Para never listens to R4 as she regards it as a bastion woofterish liberalism and communist propaganda.

Unkindest cut of all

Not sure I believe this story. I think he's been looking at his actuarial mortality tables and realised that women live longer than men..... the rest is logical.

The other possibility is that he's been talking to Jimmie, the Hungarian tank driver, and has got in touch with his feminine side - but you'd know all about that, wouldn't you?

I can assure you that the story is true. Mrs PHandy and I are to enjoy a woodland tryst on Thursday evening after she has visited afflicted husbandperson at the St Emmanuel Cohen ward for mixed boys, John Ratcliffe Hospital, Oxford. We are then having a ritual burning of all his fags and then spend hours sipping wine and looking through sailmakers catalogues.
We know how to live.

.... once in a fishing boat coming back from Fleetwood with a few other boats and we were all listening to the R4 (or Home service in those days) early morning fish market prices when we heard a demented screech which later transpired to be the crew of one of our fleet who were rudely awoken from a drunken stupor by their boat hitting Douglas Head. The crew just switched the set on and bellowed "help" into the mic ... true ....
