Just had a drink in front of the window, but it's still cloudy.
Proof that one swallow does not make a Summer, I suppose.

Forget "adage" make that "old age"!
Possible reasons for omitting 4:
An ex-bean counter, I often answered "How much profit did I make?" with "How much would you like to see in your accounts?"
It also pained me that 4 has four letters. If I'd really thought about it, I would have discovered the 42 thing, but making sense is not really my thing nowadays.
We live once, are a long time dead, so I stumble along the paths less travelled in the hope of entertaining myself.

EDIT
See what I mean, even posted this to the wrong topic!

That must be why you're warmer and we are so wet...heat rises and water falls

Hi Mike,
Good job you have broad shoulders, looks like you lot down under are getting a bit of Stick [done of course in the best possible taste] as Kenny Everett used to say
Roger.
