Chin up Frank. There's another old Latin adage 'Nil Illegitimi Carborundum' ... We are indomitable!

Ohh mate! It sounds really tough. You’ve kept me and my hubbie chuckling through some crap times over the years and we’ve had a bit of luck recently so I’ve subscribed for a year! Hope it helps. Keep smiling Frank!

At least you can have a decent cuppa! If there is such a thing in Korea! All the best!

Oh! Is this real? I don’t know you well enough to know if this is real! But it’s hilarious. I don’t want to appear so rude as to find your shit life so amusing. But, just in case you only have £1:50, I have bought you a coffee. How do you like them apples?

God bless you Donna! I hope it is hilarious, sadly it is true :) (although the 1.50 from the RNIB was artistic licence)

Whatever is the editor of The New Conservative doing in a South Korean backwater? Presumably the wife took you there. And now you are tied because of the children? You certainly need your sharp sense of humour.
