17. A night's sleep

Folks,

After a night's sleep I have decided that this thread subject is just too heavy for me. It is one thing to take a casual interest in world politics and another to get involved in debating this stuff in depth. Things are what they are, the spring sunshine is shining and there is pottering to be done on our allotment.

Apologies for making waves here at DU.

D.
