I fear the worst. The soon-to-be ex-Mrs Pither stayed at a girlyfriend's place last night but, caring soul that she is, she phoned to leave a message on our answermachine.
The thoughtfulness of the action was somewhat negated by the timing - the message was left at 2am!!! Then, on hearing it this morning, I have begun to believe that "caring" had nothing whatever to do with the recording.
The message, bellowed out down the phone, was simply: "Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill The Poor!!!"
My soon-to-be ex-wife more usually leaves messages of a domestic nature - you know, "Put the washing in", "Put the bin out" or "Don't forget to lance the dog's piles" etc. This latest offering, therefore, marks a dramatic shift in direction.
Having rung around a few of my mutant chums, I am led to believe that my soon-to-be ex-wife's apparent Thatcherite instruction is, in fact, a song by a once-popular music combo. Said combo was also, apparently, responsible for the timeless and haunting melody (which would have wowed any Eurovision judges) "Too Drunk To Fuck!". This is all very interesting........but what am I to make of it?
Was the transient Mrs Pither wishing me well? Was she insulting me? Does she want me to put the bin out? Does she want me to put the poor out? I am a tad confused. If anyone has any theories, I am all ears (with a big nose and little hair).

The only thing that I can think of is that the soon-to-be-ex Missus P. is going through some sort of midlife crisis and is hanging around punk discos with loads of other people going through mid life crises.
Holiday In Cambodia, that was the Dead Kennedys' best song. Says someone who is going through a midlife crisis.
Hi Betty,
I don't think she is having a mid-life crisis. She's already had one - me! I did ask her what it meant when she returned. She merely said: "Oh, it was just a reminder to myself." I'm still no clearer. Perhaps she has, after all, come up with a challenging and novel way of ending this country's poverty problem.
