Hi Shelley,

You can't expect anything else these days.  Individual mass surveillance
is everywhere, every movement, squeak, tinkle and roar is collected,
collated, categorised and analysed and stored for further investigation
by the security and intelligence services...:-).

On another subject...What did you think of Trumps Tweet to the President
of North Korea, observing that he was not being fat and short in reply
to the taunt that Trump is old.

I love it when politics moves from the banal to the sublime...I thought
Trump was being very clever, to say something by not saying
something...:-). It's a figure of speech called an apophasis...I didn't
know that Trump was so learned in Greek and Philology and English
Grammar...one learns sumfink new every day...:-)

Kind regards,

Dougie.
