In praise of - sliding panda cubs.

THOSE of you fortunate enough to have computers will know there are many internet videos there featuring cute baby animals doing cute baby things.

It's all good. If you think it common, vulgar or slushy, that's a valid opinion, though you should be under 24-hour police surveillance.

The rest of you will have seen and approved of lions lying down with lambs and suchlike. Everything loves everything else until they grow up and become evil, like humans. But you must watch the baby pandas on a chute in yonder China. Unfortunately, doctors tell me I'm a bit dense, so I can't figure out the original site of the video, but it's been posted up widely, and if you Google "baby pandas slide cute video", Robert is your uncle, and you'll get plenty of links.
