Comment on Don’t have to be solemn to be serious by Angus Willson

A further quote on humour from Hadley Freeman in The Guardian:

“The genius of The Muppet Show was that it was ironic without being cynical, sharp without being cruel, sweet without being sappy, anarchic without being too chaotic, timely without being dated. ”

I came across these two:

“Humour is just another defense against the universe.”
Mel Brooks

“Humour is also a way of saying something serious.”

Comment on Channel tunnel breakthrough by Angus Willson

Hi, Mark

There’s one on e-Bay at the moment for GBP9.99 and no bids.They were distributed to workers and suppliers, and sold to the public, by the hundreds so I shouldn’t think they have much rarity value.

Each tunnel breakthrough seemed important at the time to signify confidence with the progress of the underground construction as it was so obviously hidden away.

Thanks for your interest.

Kind regards, Angus

Dear Mr Willson,

May I ask you a question?

I have obtained one of the TML Contractors Breakthrough Medals. I found it in a garage of a house I moved into about 12 years ago. I was wondering whether this medal has any value to anybody as it currently just sits in a draw until it comes out to ask other people if they know anything about it.

I would appreciate any assistance you might be able to offer me.

With Kind regards

Mark
