Competition | 3 January 2009

In Competition No. 2576 you were invited to submit New Year’s resolutions of well-known figures past and present.

There can be no finer example to the goal-setting constituency than Jaspistos who, in his late forties though not necessarily at New Year, resolved to do three things which he had regarded with particular dread: to attend an encounter group, to make a parachute jump, and to answer a sex advertisement in person.
