And after the soap opera of the last few days comes this...
A phonecall from the sister formerly known as Petal, that is to say my Yogic sister Marie.
"Did you hear?" sez she without any formalities.
"Hear what?" quoth I.
"The editor is leaving," sez she.
"How do you know?" enquireth me.
"I read it in your newspaper," answered the Yoganaut. "They've advertised for a new editor. Did you not see it?"
The noble Heelers grinned ruefully.
"I never read the Leinster Lootheramawn," I told her. "So no, I didn't see it."
