This week

No talk of marketing this week. Instead I suggest we raise a glass together to HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. Normal service resumes next week.

Quotable

HRH The Duke of Edinburgh who died this week.

"Everybody was saying we must have more leisure... Now... they are complaining they are unemployed." 

In 1981, as the country was deep in recession.

"We go into the red next year... I shall have to give up polo."

In 1969, when asked in an NBC interview about reports the Queen was overspending her allowance from government.

"I would very much like to go to Russia - although the bastards murdered half my family."

When asked in 1967 if he would like to go to Moscow to help ease Cold War tensions.
