@doctor_oxford @SteveBarclay Thank you, UK, for training and supplying quality doctors to us poor deprived colonials! 😉

@archer_rs @clark_aviation A shame you missed that sale by 57 years!

@archer_rs RS - Don't do it, don't do it!!!

@doctor_oxford @MsMonsanto @MedBookClub1 I too was very moved by Dear Life - I devoured it in days, not years. Beautifully written and deep and sensitive insights into palliative care. Like With the End in Mind it's essential reading for those facing the end (for themselves or loved ones). Thank you, @doctor_oxford !

@archer_rs Disguise it as a box and the cat will enter willingly!

@archer_rs @groovy_chi @Tig3rch3n @johnandi Who is this "Boarder of Spain" you are alleged to be close to? Is he/she related to the Lady of Spain that I adore?

@themoog62 @bensowton @archer_rs Clearly, Coop don't carry quails eggs or foie gras!

@archer_rs Who's the one who's weak now!? The way to a man's heart (or acquiescence!) ...

@glass_zealot @archer_rs Imagine the noise in the modern building with all those people moving about! Give me the Selden End of Duke Humprey's any day - it positively exudes silence!

[Alex Reid @talexr]

@archer_rs I'm so grateful that you are closely tracking this dire threat to human civilisation - what would do without you @archer_rs ?

@archer_rs @jasonandrade The Golf ID would be a good choice, with a range of 540 km. Sadly not available here in Australia due to government tax/import regime.

@archer_rs @DavidAScruff Ordering a can of Coke, I see!

@archer_rs Sadly, I seem to have ended up on the cutting room floor after my "walking past" role in an Inspector Morse drama being filmed in Oxford back in 1995.

[Alex Reid @talexr]

@archer_rs So, how on Earth did they dub things like "Good Moaning"? Sounds utterly Monty Python!

[Alex Reid @talexr]

@archer_rs I'm not surprised your internet connection is overloaded! Your tweet rate is exhausting! BTW, did you ever consider selling your Tweets via "Valuables" - you could get (even) richer!

[Alex Reid @talexr]

@archer_rs I carry a Swiss Army knife with me in the car, but on my person I only carry nail clippers (I find it to be quite a universal tool!).

@archer_rs Until the Saxons (~450AD), the Vikings (~700AD) and the Normans (1066AD).
