    Thats from a bloke that apparently couldn’t escape his wife quick enough near the end of his life and his death bed ended up being a train station bed. I have thought about that saying and Leo might say I am just be facetious and silly (he would be mostly right, he was quite a serious bloke by all accounts and would write off a wannabe like me pretty quickly, good short book on religion).

    I have thought each unhappy family would have been better enough not knowing each other, but then, they would never know the happiness they could have had?

    Apologies Leo, I did read War and Peace.
