2005 Reflection

In honour of the impending New Year, I would like to direct everyone to the BBC's '100 Things We Didn't Know This Time Last Year.'

Among the things we didn't used to know, is the fact that 'half of Britons have a collection of more than 20 carrier bags at home. One in 10 people has up to 80.' Fascinating! And, more newly discovered gems include the knowledge that 'Tory leader Michael Howard and wife Sandra watch a video of Brideshead Revisited every New Year.'

There is a reason I'm proud to be British.
