Thank you Space cat, but I'll pass on this one. I said to Susie that I would start the story and having done so I will now butt out. My last contribution was:
(..........."No I dont fancy some wine, you could be on to something there Yuke". "Like what?" Euclid asked. "Like you know that every morning, the sun rises in the east? Well,for arguements sake, what if the sun didn't rise? What if the sun was a static body and it was the earth that moved? What then Yuke?" "Then Ptol, my good friend, it would mean that you have had a wine or two before you got here, and that you are not now thinking as clear as you usually............................)
Ptolemy cut him off. "Do when I am sober? Is that what you were going to say Yuke? If so, I think that you are right and I also think that I should go home". And with a "Bye Yuke", he did.
The End
