Have a nice holiday! By the way, are you stockpiling Marmite? [~50 tubs on the shelves to your right]

 

[AgentPete]

Yes, I am. As a matter of fact, I’m long on Marmite futures (MMTE). The coming MMTE famine will make me the George Soros of the yeast extract world.

Ah, cunning . . . [makes mental note to sell ill-considered Vegemite investment] . . . [what is the difference, anyway??!]

Thanks Agent Pete and see you in 2-3 weeks.

Vegemite is a lot smoother (which is a bit odd, considering it’s from the land of Ocker... wouldn’t you expect the Aussie version to be a bit horny-handed, while the Pommie version should be all Brylcreem and sleaze? National stereotypes aren’t what they used to be).

 

[Robinne Weiss]

We had a national Marmite shortage here a year or so ago--they called it Marmageddon. Not a jar to be had for love or money for months. Didn't bother me any--can't stand the stuff--but it was a huge deal for many.

Have a great vacation!

 

[KG Christopher]

Enjoy your holiday Pete.

 

[Geoff]

Hi Pete, enjoy your break!

Thanks, y'all... back in the saddle now. And - if anyone wants to know what a fogged-in observatory in Devon looks like... for seven long days.. see the attached

Starry starry night
Paint the heavens foggy grey
Reminds me of a winter's day lalalalalalalalalala

A cabin fever story?

I've been to an observatory in Devon (Norman Lockyer) - but they let me out after a day...
