I sense you are opening up a whole new philosophical debate here, bleep, about the meaning of existence!

There is a proverb about just before dying, your whole life flashes before your eyes, what if this is the flash?

If mine flashed before my eyes I'd want to look again at the weekend in Wellington in 1982 where I went on the lash with the United States Ladies Field Hockey team. The bits I can remember were spectacular, the rest I can literally only imagine.

Never try and out drink international lady hockey players. You will lose.

Do any other lesser counties have days to celebrate their insignificance? (and my definition of lesser is any which can't lay claim to the establishment of the world's greatest sports).

Do the folk down in Wiltshire get to this day then realise there's not much to celebrate?

I'll concede if they're playing RL then it has some redeeming features.  But nothing good came from drinking souped up apple juice.

It is worth reiterating that Wiltshire or pertaining to Wiltshire is not OK.

Happy belated Wiltshire day.

I feel sorry for all you non Wiltshire folk having to live elsewhere. Especially the ones that pretend to live in made up places like Narnia and Denmark.

Well, hang on, MjM.

There is a west country school of theology that argues that the moral of Adam's being tempted by Eve to try an apple and getting a piece stuck in his throat is that the only good thing to do with apples is crush them, then press them, and leave the juice to ferment naturally.  If God didn't want this to happen, he would not have created yeast, including that naturally present on apples; indeed, yeast so mystified people many centuries ago that one of its English names was 'Godisgoode', "because it cometh of the grete grace of God".
