There are some people on this list because I know them in real life. Some people because of their insight and argumentative skills. And some people because reading their journals amuses me no end, giving glimpses of lives and events that I wish I'd been at.

The wedding was held in a beautiful manor house of uncertain vintage, but there was no doubt about the place it held in the hearts of Man and His Best Friend. They immediately drew up plans to buy the place together as soon as they won the lottery. Why?

"Yeah,...right...what it is, right, if you win the lottery, then you buy this place, we'll dig a batcave and you can be my butler."

"Cool Yeah And we'll have to buy a field as well. A big one."

"What's the field for?"

I suspect Saracen tanks may also feature in his plans...
