Been in B & Q this morning trying to buy a Bamboo curtain pole for she who must be obeyed and there appears to be a shortage of Bamboo this year.... Does mean the great man is pressing on in secret?

It had gone very quiet on this subject recently - is the idea dead in the water (if you will excuse the pun)
