Diamonds And Rust (Extended Version)

About Me

O Tempora, O Mores! In 5 years or so, I'll have a mobile too . . . .
Behold the Cherry Doberman, Guardian of this Space - you need not fear my Doberperson, it responds to tender nuzzling of its ears . . . .
Your home is at risk if you do not keep up repayments on the mortgage . . . .
Right, you've made it this far - congratulations . . . . Now understand this: there are more pages online than you have seconds left in your life and their number grows by the second. Thus we who put pages up are obliged to justify our presence. The main purpose of this segment is to act as a lightning rod for visual presentation issues in the Bull & Gate. While I'm here, it's also a programmatic playpen . . . . In due course, there will be a Definitive Production Guide in the blog section - hold your breath, now . . . . Love McD.
