Do you believe in Beaker Folk?

Thanks to all for your kind enquiries about Husborne.  He's still being given a certain amount of pain relief, but no real harm done.

That's the trouble with accountants - they're so literal about everything.  He took the special application of the Sherine principle (that anything that is old must be untrue) just too far.  Yes, Newton did live a long time ago, but gravity still works.

On the bright side, at least falling from the roof of the Moot House stopped him going any further with his other scheme.  It was a bad idea to combine the general application of the Sherine principle (that the truthfulness of an idea is proportional to the number of people who believe in it) with his trip to the panto yesterday.

Please can I ask you all to stop believing in fairies again?  The things are all over the place.  And their droppings are really unpleasant.
