Ah, in that case maybe you will be able to answer Q5 (1) of Test Paper I in 1066 And All That, to wit:-

How angry would you be of it was suggested that the XIth Chap. of the Consolations of Boethius was an interpolated palimpsest?

Also, I thought that Inspector Monk was a bit slow on the up-take. I mean every knows in a murder mystery that it's always the person who everybody says couldn't possibly do it what dunnit. And when your victims are being poisoned and the aforementioned paragon of virtue is called 'Venomous George' ..... !
 
PS. Are After Nones like After Eights but for people with chocolate eating disorders?
 
PPS. Plenty of weather around and vice versa gainful employment. I don't mind the cold, it's the rain that annoys me. Nothing worse than waking up in a soggy cardboard box!
