I’m dreaming of a cold can of Coke. For some reason, I’m canoeing down a river, but the Coke keeps appearing, inviting me. I wake, only to wonder if I’d been drinking sponges last night. It’s too early on a Sunday after a late night to get …

2009 is here at last! The way I see it, 2008 will go down as the year where things that you thought were certain suddenly became uncertain. The obvious thing to mention is the Credit Crunch – remember the Chewits monster ? Like that, it came …
