    Happy B day, you big chunk of stinginess!! Hope Your Royal Mean-ness has a great and cheap day. You've really made so much of a difference to so many people's lives, and you deserve every happiness. Your advice has helped a large proportion of the population live happier lives, and sleep at night. You should be very proud of yourself.

    I wrote you a really sucky poem for your birthday, because you rock.

    Martin is a moneysaver
    He's done it all his life
    And now he's one year older
    (has he gone under the knife?)

    He's so passionate about his work
    And kicking fiscal butt
    He really should relax a bit
    and give that cake a cut

    We love it when he's on TV
    And saves us all a quid
    We don't know how you did it
    But we've very glad you did.

    Happy Birthday Martin.
    This year I'm getting organised once and for all, and going to buy a house with my wonderful other half. And that' s final!

    Well you know what with resource issues and focusing on the new look site and general economic conditions - i can't say with any definite ruling at what point during the future there may be the necessity of and not withstanding the temporal and chronological imperative that while the accuracy dividend may be an important one the non-cruciality of that specific area may in fact result in its prioritising not in the present but in the future :)
    Are you sure you're ok ??

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton
