I don't think my response to not having time to reply to comments by posting more, but this exchange amused me...
Tree: Apparently this theatre company's doing a Klingon version of "A Christmas Carol". Scrooge is a warrior who's lost his honour... I wonder what the Ferengi version's like?
Lawyer: Oh, that's easy, it's a tale of how a business man who has fallen into destructive habits of altruism is reminded that profit's what counts.
Tree:... You mean it's Atlas Shrugged?
And very soon we will be off to Edinburgh. The worst National Rail Enquiries* is predicting is half hour delays, but some trains have been cancelled, so wish us luck...
*Not Inquiries, spellchecker, thankyouverymuch.
