Today, grandchildren go home. I think they enjoyed themselves - at the very least, they will have been bored in new surroundings so that was a bonus. We've enjoyed having them here. It has caused us to put ourselves into 'entertaining guests' mode and that is always pleasant.

Only thing is they have awful preferences in television viewing.

And, finally, we will kill hesitant people." That was the climate of our time. That was our adolescence. Not all popular movements should be so-called
