Degrees Of Certainty

Benjamin Franklin famously said "Certainty? But in the world nothing can be said to be certain except death and taxes.”

I like to think there is more certainty than that in the world. I know that I can guarantee with a great degree of certainty, that Benjy’s bedroom floor will always be a mess, Marks and Spencer will always sell underwear and that my sister Anna will have at least one parcel delivered to my house from eBay each day of the four weeks before she arrives from London, for a flying visit.
