What gave me away?

Was it the fact I told him he was too old 2 years ago?
Was it the fact I told him that term and age limits should be introduced for MPs?
Was it when I questioned how he had improved things for his constituents in the last 12 years because I could see no improvements?

He did admit that he usually just bins my emails - so I limit myself to no more than 3 per day although with the state of things that is hard. I like to disguise the subject line to trick him into reading my missives.

Bit frightening really.
Why is spelling that important now? who has to write letters anymore? as long as you can use a spell checker you are away.
The great bard (ole Will himself) apparently signed his name using different spelling at least seven times

I think technology has made it less important than it was. The Lads wife is dislectic, cannot spell for toffee but she has a Masters within the health service. Ole Liz does not appear too hot and is apparently heading for the top job.

Dyslexia is a different matter of course ,but for most people the 3 R's 'reading,riting and rithmetic ' are important I think !

Managed a quick ride today. I had to remove the winter inner jacket before I set off. Shows how much riding I've done this year...

Yay! Well done John. I was out on mine today too. Admittedly on a couple of errands, but still nice to be out riding.
