Carolyn Frost And Chairman Mao.

A couple of days ago I mentioned a somewhat incomprehensible saying, originating with our very own Carolyn Frost, that life was like a babbling brook and you can meet yourself coming back. One of our regular readers says that this put him in mind of one of the sayings of the late Mao Tse Tung, that you can never step in the same river twice. We suspect that this is the only time that the thoughts of Carolyn Frost and Chairman Mao have been mentioned in the same breath.

As is well known at the time of the Chinese cultural revolution millions of little red books containing the thoughts of Chairman Mao were produced and distributed throughout the world. Not to be outdone perhaps we should produce a little book containing the thoughts of Carolyn Frost and distribute it widely.

Perhaps rather than bright pillar box red, the cover however should be in a rather more tasteful shade of strawberry.
