  i am sure that most of us do this now that we have digi boxes or televisions, a hundred channels and nothing to watch.
  
  a few minutes ago i chanced upon a station that extolled "rolf harris uncut".
  
  without wishing to seem uncharitable if i was given a chainsaw and left alone with him for a few minutes the problem would be corrected.

  Watching TV can be a symbol of passive subjection: submitting to other people's nonsense.
  Ever tried flicking the remote out through the back garden window?

  Rolf is a very gifted painter - he may be the butt of a lot of jokes, but he is a very lively, talented guy - in his 80s I believe.

  Bern. Roger, he will be 82 at the end of this month.
  
  I thought his portrait of the queen was very good and a lot better than many I have seen. I remember being fascinated when he did those huge paintings on Rolf's Cartoon Club.

  Surely Rolf is the Henry Cooper of the entertainment world and has afforded building sites with hours of innocent entertainment whenever there is a bit of hard-board about.
  Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.
