Rhub enthuses: It is obvious, reading deeply into the touching story you have unfolded, that the whole piece is a metaphor of the psychic discontinuities engendered by, not only relocation from the land of ones birth - as has surely happened to the young Portuguese national who is your protagonist, but subsequent displacement from his chosen, or adopted, country, Spain.
Thanks for telling me what it meant. I had no idea. I only wrote it. Hell, I am deep, aren't I? Deep, deep, deep ... doodoo.
No bloody essays. Business cases are bad enough. Terms of reference are worse. Theses are the pits. So go on. Put me in detention.

Mav smithed:
Puns and word jokes, however insane,
Make a maverick laugh like a drain!
The only real pain
Is when forced to explain
He’s an Addict – so kindly refrain!
Twenty-one again, is it, Mav? Commiserations ...

I fear I'm at threat from the internet
Each night it seduces me into debt
I laugh like a drain
as it downloads my brain
What TV began it'll finish yet
Carpe whatever
Carpe whatever
