I found myself hearing my brother's voice in my head saying ......

"Pull the other one, it has bells on it"

Apparently a saying he picked up when he was in the Sea Cadets, and always used whenever someone tried to pull the wool over his eyes :-D :-D

I must admit I didn't twig straightaway. I assumed Bob typed Feb instead of March and that it was GR's plan to cope with a hard Brexit.

D C Thomson are making lots of money even allowing for Parragon Books. The Beano, BrightSolid and FMP are doing especially well. So long as GR runs a profit it will be safe if increasingly pointless.
