Green shoots

My dear wife always says, in jest, that I faintly resemble Samuel Pepys the legendary English social diarist. Certainly Sam is one of my firm favourites. It is not widely known that he was instrumental in unwittingly inventing the world's first driver when he crafted a device for flinging stones at unwelcome cats in his garden. But I have a confession to make and it deserves a wider audience which is why I have told the writers of our most excellent magazine Your Somerset all about it. See page 8. Yes I want to be President of the United States. I believe my swing is more than up the task, and all that will be required is a session or two at the local tanning clinic to develop that distinctive Obama glow.
