    I know tomorrow is the shortest day, but does that mean that tonight is the longest night or tomorrow night?

    You should have seen it from my side

    At least I could stand up. And I brought a coat. I had to watch a falling down man slowly dying of hyperthermia. I've had better evenings.

    Incorrect Mr Grant.

    It's okay for you, blubberboy - it's hard to get cold when you look like the Michelin man ... in a parka ... and a soup.

    I'm excellent company.
    Your hair must have been in your ears.

    What gets me is....

    When they were laying out Stonehenge, like 5000 years ago, before the invention of clocks, how did they know which was the shortest day? I mean its only a couple of minutes shorter than the previous day. One for Roundman me thinks.

    Excellent company?

    You were more pissed up when you got there than I was when I went home, 5 long torturous hours later. I've seen healthier looking dead people. F.uked some of 'em too.

    Aye.

    I love the term ''pissed up'' - it's class.
    ''He was all pissed up on beer he was''.

    Yes.
    I was a little rough.
    But I was still there.
    Cos I'm not a southern shandy drinking dwarf, a length loving spazzmatic solicitor or a stripy shirted bum-aids-ridden buffoon.

    I plan to be just as ill this year.
