You nasty boy

Hello everyone! For all you sad Monty Python fans out there, here's a link to a fair collection of MP3s and WAV files featuring several venerable film tunes, quotes, etc. Enjoy!

What else can I tell you? Had my first proper mini-breakdown (sort of) last week and am still recovering from it. Weird. A learning experience, I guess. No, I'm not going to harp on about it here - just to say I'm taking a bit of a break at the minute, so in case I've failed to answer the odd e-mail or respond to a message left, I apologise. And yes, things are looking up again, so there's nothing to worry about. Besides the World Cup, obviously...

This whole patriotism/national pride thing may have been predictable, but the fun bit is how much satisfaction everyone I meet seems to be getting from the fact that Germany is a sea of flags for the first time since, well, over fifty years ago. It tickles all kinds of people pink, and not just the kind who, like myself, have been bleating about our lack of national pride for ages. Several friends and acquaintances have remarked on the topic recently, and every single comment was positive. So, there! Interesting Times indeed
