Yeah well, some of us go for length, not breadth. And listen, sonny,
I went to school a lot further north than you are now, by trolley
bus, in the snow. And it was a point of honour not to wear a coat.
And then we moved to Glasgow, and I discovered what tough meant.
(I used to share a bench in Physics with a 15 year old lad whose dad
was a debt collector. He used to help out on a Saturday, and looked
the part. You try explaining Ohm's Law to someone straight out of a
Tarentino movie.)
All the best
Bruce
