No offence

God forbid that you should feel button-holed!

But let's get one or two things straight.

Don't say 'No offence!' - when offence is your goal.

Don't ever say 'I'm only joking!' - because you aren't.

And never say 'Let's just move on!' - until you've reflected on the motives and agendas which brought you to this uncomfortable point.

No offence.

Oh, and call me Chris Canary or Primrose Pete, but I so enjoyed being yellow the other day, that I extended the festival for a few days. But on Monday, I plan to be orange, like a dangerous flame; like a figure of fire emerging from the rubble, free from it's crushing weight.
