    Osborne & Little

    No ... I'm not advertising - nor is the latter a relative of mine. But did you know that the co-founder of this up-market firm of fabric and wallpaper designers is Sir Peter Osborne - none other than the father of Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne?

    Quite appropriate in some ways, really ... because Osborne Jr seems to be pretty adept at "papering over the cracks" in the British Economy. Well ... ... why should he worry? After all, he's heir apparent to the Baronetcy of Ballentaylor & Ballylemon in County Tipperary, Ireland.

    However, since Osborne Sr is only a year or so older than me, George may yet discover "it's a long way to Tipperary" for him!
