Last week, I wanted to know if you agreed with the idea that larger families are falling out of style. A full seventy-four percent of you did. Eighteen percent felt that it depended on exactly how large the family was.

I agree with the majority. Although I do think that as long as the parents have the resources, they can have as many children as they like. Even though I would like to have another child, I don’t think I could see myself having more than two.

As for today’s poll, I want to know what you did this weekend.

Once, upon a Kindle dreary, I read out a story, Deary
Thanks to many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten law.
While I read it, likely lolling, suddenly there came a squalling,
As of some one bawling, bawling at slights galore.
‘Tis some process-server,’ I muttered, ‘bawling at my locked front door –
Only this, and nothing more.’

Ah, distinctly I remember I was in a bad distemper,
And each seperate dying Semper wrote its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly they sued my pants off; – vainly I said “Hey, you sod off”
But my books ceased to soothe me – sooth, they were Kindled no more.
For the sweet and sonorous story which I’d purchased long before –
Silent now, forevermore.
