		<description><![CDATA[I was taught some valuable lessons when I was a kid. Not all of them have necessarily been carried through to adult life, it has to be said; knowing that Tootles the Taxi would go anywhere was important to me as a four year old, but Tootles never seemed to be available when I was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If the stubs on my book are anything to go by, in the three years preceding my move to the US, I think I probably wrote maybe one chequecheck. And even then I can&#8217;t be sure that I wasn&#8217;t just in desperate need of a piece of paper to write a phone number or address [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I would like to issue a full and unreserved apology to the United States of America. In a previous post, I had revealed that an American foodstuff (albeit Italian-American) had made a personal attack on me, and left me with a cold sore-like legacy. By relating such a story, I was suggesting that foods from [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m rarely very ill. In more than fifteen years of working, I&#8217;ve probably had no more than twenty days off sick. That&#8217;s not to say that I don&#8217;t get sick at all &#8211; it&#8217;s just that I&#8217;m likely to drag myself into work despite various aches and pains, in some kind of martyr-ish attempt to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think it&#8217;s probably fair to say that there&#8217;s a common perception among the global community that Americans are pretty direct. And that&#8217;s no bad thing. For example, I&#8217;d say that most Americans are pretty intolerant of poor service, and aren&#8217;t afraid to make their dissatisfaction known. As a sweeping generalisation, Americans aren&#8217;t known for [...]]]></description>

I manfully stifled my laughter as he was put in a wheelchair and slowly wheeled around the medical corridors like an 85 year old war veteran by a man in maroon overalls. I wouldn’t normally have controlled myself [...]]]></description>

There was the time I fainted and fell back off my stool in a physics class at school, although walking in with a suspected fractured skull and walking out with a fractured thumb was frankly embarrassing. And when I was a toddler, I naively [...]]]></description>

When I was a twelve year old, I used to hate cauliflower cheese, butter and coffee, claiming that even being in the same room as any of these products would cause me to throw up. And to be fair, the first three [...]]]></description>

The surgery smells like all doctors the length and breadth of the UK – a heady mix of two parts flatulent old lady, one part Brut aftershave, [...]]]></description>

Not the slight sniffles of a borderline hay fever attack, but the full on “I need thirty tissues to get through every hour” man cold, which could conceivably bring about my [...]]]></description>
