A Christmas anecdote:

Pauline (the sister of the ex-Gladiator) was telling us about a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert she'd been to in Australia. She'd only been able to book a ticket in a seated area, and when the band came on, she stood up in a giddy haze of excitement only to become aware of general discontent behind her: "Can't see", mutter mutter etc.. She turned around and said heatedly: "Well stand up then!".

Everyone in the row behind her was in a wheelchair.

Oh how we cringed.

uPdate: I've just ordered a FireWire card for my iPod, instead of paying though the nose for an Apple-branded USB cable. HAH. Take that, Jobs.
