Bill - For Pete's sake, get down there and give the man some bloody whisky - at least afterwards he will the know why he's got a temperature, the shivers, the shakes, and feels like sh*te in the morning.
Peter - Until such salvation from Uncle Bill is to hand in a cut crystal tumbler served by your faithful batman, at least it does appear to headed in the right direction if you are visualising a glass of ice-cold Leffe. Just add Nurse Gladys Emmanuel as a Hawaii babe together with a Ferrari to the picture, and you'll be back to normality without the need for these devilish recreational drug experiments. Oh, and when the hippopotamuses do appear flying round the room, remember that it's only authentic if they have rank tabs and are flying a tight finger four formation indicating that the RAF is flying top cover for this mission - otherwise it's merely a random figment of the imagination.....
All the best,
Mark
