I’m tired – really very tired. Not the kind of tired where you have to actively try and stop yourself from nodding off. Rather, the kind of tired where your eyes and head just hurt – thinking hurts, reading hurts, even just looking hurts! This is all the fault of Head of the Trent in Nottingham yesterday.

I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that Britain is now a nation primarily filled with ‘glass half empty’ people. Now, one could argue that me making that very comment puts me in the same category, but I would heartily disagree. I like to think that much of the time I’m a ‘glass half full’ person, or if nothing else ‘half a glass’, simple as. But I digress from my original point – the catalyst of which being the unusual …
