Your confidence when facing the ineffable, Wiley, always astounds me.

I have started my annual seven-day holiday-with-the-family. For a week I won't be watching television. Maybe Newsnight. I always think this must be how the rest of the world lives. However I have seven days of recordings ready for when I get back to reality.

You must have gone to an English public school. Yes, it explains a lot.

I was thinking about this the other day and decided if older boys make your life a misery but you are allowed to make younger boys' lives a misery in your turn, you acquire the assumption that you are all superior to people who did not go through this process. This, alas, means you are superior to everyone else. However:

* nowadays parents insist this does not happen
* the process does not take effect
* there is no longer any point sending your child to an English public school
* they will fall into decrepitude
* we'll now have to pick up the tab for educating gilded youth
* they get you coming, they get you going.

Your nanny went to a public school.

Wrong again.
