    Ooh I dunno. The entertainment value of seeing Simon in his full Nutwood University regalia would be worth the ticket on its own

      It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

            I know I'm a bit of a dunce at times, but for the life of me I cannot see what on earth that image has to do with anything. Or perhaps that's the point.

              I'm sure the prof can speak for himself (and his Nutwood chums)

                Some people have a real problem with Nutwood. I can't understand it.
                Now, Eton...
                ...and people who refuse to write in sentences...

                  Indeed, Eton appears to offer very poor education regarding use of English. Only today, during PMQs I hear an Old Etonian confounding singular with plural in his use of the erroneous construction "that criteria" (c.f. 55' 15" into the Daily Politics) programme.
