That suprises me about you Ted - there was me thinking you'd be all over Spinoza. Not that I know the fellow from a cat's bum hole myself but evry time old Reggie Jeeves used to infest the Junior Gannymede with his presence, all you get from him was 'Spinoza this' 'Spinoza that' and likely as not Spinoza's Uncle bloody Mauritz. Honestly a fellow couldn't make a bawdy remark about a lady's maid's embonpoint without Spinoza being brought into the coversation. My attitude was the hell with Spinoza and the horse he rode into town on, but this didn't deter Reggie, he never missed an opportunity to pontificate on the subject. The last straw came when he organised the collection for my birthday and got me a copy of Ethica Ordine Geometrico Demonstrata instead of the banjolele lessons I had strongly hinted would be my preference. The man was a positive menace. Small wonder he was unanimously blackballed when his membership came up for renewal. On yer ruddy bike as I'm sure Spinoza would have put it.
