Given that your "over-stuffed leather armchair" of a Pedant-General is:
- white
- male
- heterosexual (I'm sorry, but the Guardian would hold this as relevant)
- married
But then, seeing as I am also:
- from a landed-gentry family
- public school educated
- an Oxbridge graduate
- licenced to keep and use a shotgun
- a practising Anglican communicant
- lately a Commissioned Officer in Her Majesty's Armed Forces
- paying to educate my children privately
- right-libertarian in outlook

In that case, deogowulf, I think I'll pass :-)
