Sometimes I almost worry that I'm shifting towards a perma-mood of prematurely-aged 'tetch'.

Then, the 'almost worrying' stops almost as soon as it almost starts, as I remember that I've ALWAYS had high standards and a low tolerance for boredom.

I wagered to Mrs FrogAlaPeche months ago that they'd remake this, particularly following that 'Adolescence'(?) programme.

I doubt I'll watch either.
