None of what's here will surprise Prince's faithful fans, and some of it may even be disappointingly familiar, although it's hard to imagine being disappointed by a pop song as well constructed as "What Do U Want Me 2 Do?" In the past decade or so, Prince has lost control not of his music but of his tone.
For a discipline purporting to influence a wide range of human misbehaviour, this was disappointingly limited, although we concede a more thorough investigation might have yielded more.
Many a romance is said to have begun on the dance floor, although disappointingly, I have not had this experience.
It is about a northern working-class boy overcoming the odds to become successful in the face of mockery and scepticism (although, disappointingly, Prescott didn't go on to be a ballet dancer in a feather tutu).
The Northerner is particularly looking forward to Granny Turismo, three ladies on souped-up motorised shopping trolleys, on 1st July, although disappointingly there is no mention of a magic carpet, which surely would have been a more fitting mode of transport.
Although, disappointingly, spontaneous stripteases do not seem to have been a feature of his own find, Finkel's account of how he came by the tablet – featuring as it does an enigmatic collector who once starred as Doughnut in the 1970s children's show Here Come the Double Deckers – is wryly and entertainingly told.
Similarly in the morning the house "turns itself on, as it has every morning since the family had it retrofitted with the Smart House system of wiring five years ago" – although disappointingly this turns out to mean turning the heating and hot water on, which my house can do, and starting up the coffee machine and oven by themselves – surely a disaster waiting to happen.
The research project, if chosen and carried out carefully, can be very rewarding although, disappointingly, only a third of the projects went to completion.
Sixty (31%) individuals also returned follow-up questionnaires sent out six months post training (time 3); although disappointingly low, this figure is in the same range as our previous experience of following up health professionals [ 26].
