  Yes indeed, David. The pursuit of good news, and the insistence on good news only, is like the beach holiday - complete with Daiquiris on-tap - there is an unquestioned understanding that it will go on like this always.
  
  As with my Granny and her playing Whist for matches, once the victor has all the matches the only way for the game to continue is by match-redistribution. She well knew the folly of imagining an on-going, never ending, supply of new matches and the foolishness too of the old-lag's trick of splitting what matches you have into many (thinner and thinner) matches.
  
  All we men have played park/waste ground football in our youth and will have met the odd stuck-up ball-owner who insists on the game being played to his own (self serving) rules OR he will take his ball home, but even these misguided fools are often driven to face the reality that they need the players more than the players need his particular ball.
