Firestarter.

I am at work.

Having a cigarette with a man I have known for one week. And have instantly liked. This is not an everyday experience for me.

Instantly Likeable Man examines his cigarette.

ILM: You know, you can accidentally start a fire without even thinking about it.

Me: Mmmm.

ILM: I mean. If I were to pop into the kitchen leaving a lit cigarette in the sitting-room, the house would instantly burst into flames.

Me: Mmmmm.

ILM: Now. On the other hand. If you want to intentionally start a fire …..

Me: Mmmmmm.

ILM: It takes bloody HOURS.

Me: Mmmmmm.

Instantly Likeable Pyromaniac may be more suitable in light of this conversation.

M_G: I think he was a camping enthusiast. And thanks.

DP: Won't I do? It really WOULD be accidental.

NWM: Hi. Only 'sort of' I'm afraid. Due to home ISP grief I have time to post but that's about all.

PO: Now look here......

MM: Hardy har. I SHAN'T watch you on the tele-vision if this continues.

L: Alright. Christ. Look. I just said he was a likeable guy.

God. You write a blog full of unrest and ill-feeling and the minute you say that someone is sort-of O.K. you're accused of being a BENDER.

I'm not by the way. Gay that is.

I'm not over-reacting am I?

TD: Oh, it was just an 'amusing' riposte to a comment you left on my blog. Funny how explaining these things robs them of any potency. Well, not that funny.
