There he goes with his eye out

How have I not just slapped T.Aldous? I was down at Noddy earlier this afternoon talking to Julia about the impending move when in trots The Man. He trotted straight over to the encyclopedias, feigned surprise, tut-tutted and called Julia over.

"These encyclopedias look a bit old, Julia," he said.

He then opened a volume of Britannica and said: "good grief! This is the 1996 edition!"

Which he's known since Tuesday afternoon when I gave him a print out of the publication dates of all the encyclopedias in the borough.
