Near misses. Do they count? Yes, if it's a Boeing skimming the tail-fin. You'd want that on record. Otherwise debatable. One David Aaronovitch has an odd take on it. He says 'I live in North London and was nearly educated at Oxford." How nearly? Bombed the A Levels, booted out of the interview? Got a train there once?
How poncey is that? Are we all supposed to think: "Crikey, how could they turn him down!" Cambridge turned me down. Got over it. As any drunk will happily state: "I've been chucked out of better places than this!"
And don't you love Michelle! She's brilliant isn't she? Telling British girls to choose a bloke who loves his mother. No matter that suggests something entirely different here. Kind and cute - that's what counts, according to Mrs Obama. She's no slouch at spotting what's hot. She also reckons elite education isn't a must in a man. Are you listening David?
