+===== Biscuit Tax =====
+At least one of the slogans we have used over the years is "//Biscuits and Wine Since 1999//"! OULES of years gone past, Elizabeth, gives a good explanation as to why:
+>"//Picture the scene. It is Easter 2001, and Sue and I are pacing along a beach. Pacing pensively, and indeed sadly. A deep anxiety has opened up beneath us, where the casual observer might see only sand. Sue and I have promised to direct the OULES play in the following term, and it is to be the beautiful . This play shines, glimmers and indeed shimmers with so much wit and charm that it's difficult to cut thoroughly. We are unlikely to make it less than 2 hours long. This does not matter from the point of view of audiences, as the play is for the summer, charity performance and so is not limited by what is reasonable to take to an old people's home. Nor does it matter from the point of view of our actors, as we have a uniquely superb range of young OULES desperate for parts. But how will we find time to rehearse it all? We only have 2 rehearsals a week, and though they're meant to be 2 hours long, the punctuality of the average OULE means that you get at most an hour's rehearsing done.
+A light shines. We have contemplated the psychology of the individual and obtained a plausible solution. OULES are essentially like puppies, and so the best way to train them is with biscuits. And thus we form our plan. It probably will not mean anyone's any earlier to rehearsals, but it will mean there're more biscuits around, and so Sue and I will worry less.//"
