We were also gazelles, she and I - but that's for another day; another reminiscence. Though at the end of the world I will likely go with a whimper; so perhaps my manly credentials are not as strong as they ought to be.

It has to be tomorrow because I promised myself that I would actually log out of anorak before midnight, so I can be up bright and early in the morning to see whether the pillars of civilisation are still vertical. It would be a shame to sleep in and miss the end of the world as we know it...

Big Brother provides that for them. More hard maths, night-time boxing gloves and cold showers. It never did me any harm, and if I ever come out from the cupboard under the stairs, I'll prove that statement.

Somehow, I suspect that dung beetles don't feature much on the documentary menu...
