Alas, 'old Peter' these days, and alas again, I am not talented enough to write some 'Russian Tales'. And thus this long a-winding thread comes gently back onto topic at its close.

In this threadish twilight, I am going to ask Ian (if he reads this) to consider reviving 'Arthur Random', the random posting device (last seen about 4 years ago). It just seems a suitable time to do it. I realise that the personnel list will need updating, but look at the advantages. 'Arthur Random' ticks all the wrong boxes:
*it delivers friendly insults
*its humour is dry
*it makes in-jokes
*its wording is brusque
*it is hugely frivolous
*it gets Ed searching like billy-o
*it will be baffling to the newer Tarboarders

- Let's do it!
