The New Testament? :wink:
"Bipolar is a roller-coaster ride without a seat belt. One day you're flying with the fireworks; for the next month you're being scraped off the trolley" I said that.

Ah yes...He was, He is, and He always will be. Perhaps we're getting a tad too close to what we each perceive as the Truth. I think there is a line in 'White Swans' in which one of the uncles says that, " there are 18 different versions of the Truth ."

Did I put that last full-stop in the correct place?

A little bird standing in front of Christy Moore phoned me to say that they were all enjoying themselves while he sang, and while everyone was half-cut and enjoying the falling-over juice, they appreciated your invite for tomorrow.

Sorry to hear about the reason for your missing the festival. ( I'll say no more )

Have to make it clear that although many around us were more than "half-cut" and falling down in the mud, our little group were enjoying ourselves without the aid of such juice. 8)
