Jams reported today the strange case of Stuart Hill, who decided that the Shetlands should secede from the U.K. and the E.U. and become the State of Forvik.
Commendable, Stuart but surely this comes under the heading of "Complete Waste of Time"? You know very well Iceland will step in and take you over.
This got me thinking about other things which are a complete waste of time:
... and so on and so on. I wonder what seven things spring to your mind when you hear the words: "Complete Waste of Time"?

This got me thinking about other things which are a complete waste of time:
1. Expecting understanding and compassion from a bureaucracy;
2. Thinking your holiday is going to run smoothly with no accidents and no lost documents;
3. Lending a book, even with your name on the inside cover and hoping to see it again;
4. Getting enough time to blog and visit everyone
... and so on and so on. I wonder what seven things spring to your mind when you hear the words: "Complete Waste of Time"?

3. Elections in some parts of Italy.

5. Ironing - especially linen, which creases again as soon as you look at it.
6. With you on book-lending, James!

Uber, whatever my feelings about the recent vote over there, however much these comments were pro-me, I have to apply the rules of this blog on a matter of principle. You and every regular know that.
