Here the tranquility of a leafy Somerset village deep in the English countryside is being shattered by army helicopters from the local base flying training sorties overhead day and night. The last time this happened was just before the Iraq invasion. So unless the British army is burning fuel for fun, expect military action somewhere soon.

Meanwhile, back in Hong Kong I see the married cheats’ website ashleymadison.com is kicking up its own dust storm. Readers have reacted strongly to this subject, with few agreeing that “infidelity website saves marriages in Hong Kong,” as the site’s press release proclaims.

The  “King of Infidelity” himself, Noel Biderman has now landed in Hong Kong to launch his adultery website, saying his company “totally underestimated the desire” for his services in Asia, especially in a highly stressful and competitive city like Hong Kong.

Rather than seeing his website as a sleazebags' charter, Biderman believes it’s a remedy to save marriages. “People living in cities with high socioeconomic pressure have a higher possibility to be dissatisfied with their marriage,” he says. “AshleyMadison provides these individuals a platform where they can get rid of their stress instead of taking it home.”

I have a better idea. Don’t get married if you doubt you can keep your vow to be faithful. And if you’re not sure, don’t. Save yourself the cost of a rock and a meaningless wedding, a bunch of promises you don’t intend to keep and then an expensive divorce.
