It’s quite something to see even Roland (fucking *Roland*!) absolutely
owning Burt. You can tell the school holidays are starting; Burt’s gone
totally to pot. He’s a bag of nerves. Torquay Halfords had better stock up
on replacement car aerials. It’s going to be a *long* summer.

I’m loving watching Roland (fucking **Roland!!!**) absolutely drag Burt
here.

I fully understand your child-like, breathless gleefulness at this turn
of events, but I must say that if I were to remark; "I faced 25 new
posts in this thread this morning.", *I* wouldn't necessarily be
implying that all these posts had been posted this morning. Just for
some perspective, and because I am troubled by any exception to the
rule: "Roland is always wrong".
