FGM: nothing short of barbaric...

Forgive me for making light of such an obnoxious practice (I've just returned from The Gambia, so, believe me, it's something I have reason to feel pretty strongly about). Sometimes life's just too serious to take seriously...

a (not so) fast-flowing current account?...

cash flow woes? - just stash
your liquid assets in a
bank - a river bank...

in the Cup tomorrow. What's
a non-sequitur?...

- whilst on the subject (and I'm addressing both of you here) I myself am about to leave these shores for the best part of a relatively short time. Back on May 24. For the sake of us all, I shall be maintaining radio silence until I return. In the meantime, live well, take care risks - and (memo to self) easy on the dark chocolate rice cakes. They may be the healthy option, but not in bulk. Many thanks. Hasta pronto...
