Reincarnation - who were you and who do you want to come back as?

[P. G. Tipps]

I'll play this hand, since I have no choice.

However, I see that the 'elephant' in the room has come back as a 'fart'.

I thought such forum crudity was most foreign to you, Padraig, until it all made some sense ...

Maybe, to avoid an impending political nightmare, we might try and exchange 'Ms Mays' with our fellow-Commonwealth friends ... ?

Desperate times, desperate tactics!

As for reincarnation, I'm very much with Flay. No other person could possibly compete with my very good-self, of course, but I always strive for perfection so changes would undoubtedly occur if I were ever blessed with a second chance.

Those who boast that they would never change a thing in their lives are apparently already perfect ... I wonder what is their exclusive secret in the clearly successful quest for lifelong happiness?

I think we should be told!

Perfect, Padraig, thank you
