Hi Tony

There is an extendend version to this quote.
“An expert is someone who knows more and more about less and less, until eventually he knows everything about nothing.”

Hi KKK,

Thats what i want to be, a true expert, not one of those ordinary experts.

I will tell Mrs D and then she will understand how lucky she is to live with such a mind.

Hi Tony,

I cant remember, i cant retain or recall information these days.

When Mrs D sends me to the shops, she asks me to confirm where i am going and what i am going for.

I f i get that right, she asks me what day it is and who is the prime minister, (just like they do when you are suffering from concussion)

I always say monday and Gladstone, she then says wrong and i answer Attlee and she smiles sweetly and says dont forget to bring the change back.

regards

You make me sound very nice..... In fact, I go from exasperation to a state of collapse, then I recover and go from prostration to fury, so that my average state is one of being annoyed.

But I do love you. :wub:
