GAMESMANSHIP and ... OH YES ... BREXIT

The UK withdrew from the EU at 11 p.m. GMT on 31 January 2020, beginning a transition period that is set to end on 31 December 2020.

Meanwhile life goes on ....   I liked this article below and simply want to make a note of it while I am noting this historic event today, well, actually last night.

This article by Graham Chainey in TLS December 6, 2019:

His series of humorous books on how to secure an unfair advantage began in 1947 with Gamesmanship, purporting to show how poor players can beat better ones by subtle psychological ploys. This sold prodigiously and led to a series of sequels covering other aspects of life.



This led to other 'ships' for ploys or manoeuvres in social situations, namely, 

Lifemanship. and Oneupmanship
