Is that why blokes remember the words to "There's an old mill by the stream, Nellie Dean" when they've had some?
On the subject of memory, I once knew a bloke who said that the last can in a slab of 24 was put there to remind us to buy another slab.
Sorry Eric, this hijack of your post is unkind.

My late Dad always referred to Chesterton as 'Geek' Chesterton...and that was in the late 1950's, when a small computer was a big as a three-storey building, and nerds and suchlike hadn't been invented yet
