We have the general election in two days time. I'm completely underwhelmed by the idea. Why do some people get so caught up in a sort of hysterial obsession with the outcome? Some pubs have apparently installed big screens, so that interested tipplers can watch the results live. I'm not one of them. I daresay I won't be able to help finding out what happened when I wake up on Friday. On Thursday I'm going to bed at my normal time. The whole thing is a crashing bore.
