ANTICANT IN RETIREMENT ? WE HOPE NOT and doubt it.
Anticant, our resident storyteller par excellence, seeks retirement from blogging. If this is to be the case then Zola will take his 20th nervous breakdown.
On retirement it is usual and correct to pay tributes. But i suspect it is too soon to pay tribute as i suspect the lyrical and reasonable Anticant remains with spirit and fuel to enchant and edutain.
To pay a tribute right now to Anticant would be an insult.
There is lead in that old pencil yet!!! Giggle, giggle.

The artistic sribe will write as he will and when he feels he will.
should have been "artistic SCRIBE".
No matter
and Szwag's in labour..........
Maybe the occasional comment here and there, but definitely a sabbatical on postings on my sites until I get my blogging breath back - thanks all the same!
It's always wise to bow out while the audience are still clapping, even if only half-heartedly, instead of doing a Tony Bliar and clinging on to the precipice by one's finger-nails.
I hope you'll follow Barbara Streisand, AC, doing one of her latest-most-recent-most-finalest-of-all-finals-foreverest-of-forevers-final-farewellest-of-all-farewells-tours.
Failing that, a spot free on Blue Peter, anytime before mid-July, when Blair's got his farewell edition pencilled in, would be good. (He'll no doubt be teaching the nations' kids some tricks with sticky back plastic and the countless detergent bottles he's used, sleep-washing his hands in the dead of night.)
Bwi - sticky-back plastic and detergent bottle are part of my tricks..how did you know ?
I think Butwhatif is a romantic fox.
Evergreen.
Just like you anticant : Evergreen and ever welcome.
Come and go as you please me old.
Shurely shum mishtake, LB? What doush you mean by thish?
Why,BWI - it WAS you last night !
Wysshh it had been ME
It wasn't. Honest... [Blushes. Then attempts to move on swiftly, changing the subject; or suspect ...]
Erm. ... Whatever happened to that promised tale, of how you helped someone self-park their own vehicle late one night, LB? You know, the friend of yours with the hands-free mobile? The one who took 'pay and display' literally.
BTW : An artist has licence.
Or as peter sellers would say liiccance.
No I am am NOT a PINK Tyger.
Nor do I wear pink ties or any ties for that matter.
Sorry, me and Blake own the copywrite for tyger spelt with a 'Y.' Continued use will resort in legal action, and I'm confident my lawyer can beat up your lawyer.
As for AC, well, let him have his sabbatical. Everyone becomes disillusioned with blogging.
Keep burning bright our Tyger
I hope Anticant will be soon in the blogging melee.
Anticant will continue to write well informed and highly entertaining material - and rightly so.
However, we will be spared the attempts at control of the awks squad which have gone hand in hand with some delightful articles.
anonymous: why don't you stick to your earlier, and wiser, insight that "The artistic scribe will write as he will and when he feels he will."
If anticant eventually resumes blogging, it will indeed be as, where and how he will, and not to please you or anyone else except himself.
Sorry, wrong again.
I was not 'that' anonymous.
Please who you wish.
There is no one "anonymous" as i have found out.
OK for me.
But just to make this point clear.
As you will have noticed, anticant is now pitching in the odd few comments [or few odd comments]. He isn't ready yet to resume full-blown blogging, though.
Welcome back Anticant.
Nowt more to be said.
