“None of us here know the intricacies of what goes on and what delays there might be. Dealing with the parts of the world that we do out of necessity, we are going to be more exposed to things taking forever for no obvious reason, or the rug being pulled at the last minute.”

Knowing precisely, courtesy of perpetual failure (it’s where the perpetual knocking comes from) to deliver, due to just such complexities, intricacies - call them what you like.

Bubbling still? You might be right, but therein lies the problem. The same could/is said every year. “Whole raft” etc that Pete would love to tell us about. But NOTHING gets served up.
