So I was right! Some months ago, in response to an uncharacteristic politically tendentious article from Adam Trimingham, I concluded he must be about to retire. Now we know he is - next month.
He must have been a model of self-discipline to avoid accusations of party political bias when writing articles in a journal proclaiming its neutrality.
It seems all this self-denial had its effect and now in his final moments he has decided to indulge himself.
