The numbers game
It was a masterpiece of organisation. There were so many of us there that we took over most of the restaurant. Doctors, dentists, lawyers, accountants... and me.
All the time I was expecting to be ejected on account of my extreme youth, but I obviously dodged that particular bullet. Rather a lot of beer and wine was consumed, but we had to save a drop for the toast.
The organiser had done a tally of the total number of grandchildren for whom the group was responsible. Last year 99, this year 166.
Bloody hell... who says Britain's productivity is down?

That’s a ratio of about 4.7 to 1 head of household. So if 5:1 say next generation will yield 830 and so on. They going to need a very big restaurant if they stay together as a cohort even if the women are not invited!
