Eek. I was slightly ticked off that the “available now” day bed I ordered couldn’t be delivered till the following Saturday. That was a whole eight days.

In the early 20th century, an Anglo-Irishman named Zarh Pritchard was living in Tahiti and decided that he really needed to paint the underwater scenes there. So he oiled up some paper, built an easel, got some fancy crayons, bought a diving suit, & created these scenes. Brief fame, now forgotten.

Reiman’s P20 factor 50 SPRAY (not lotion) (they do a face spray as well). Feels “barely there”, though you have to leave it 30 minutes before going out. The link is Irish but you should be able to get it over there www.meagherspharmacy.ie/products/p20...

Send them to Greece. They’re pushed for space so you get put in the ground for a bit, then taken back up and, now taking up considerably less room, put into the family tomb or the ossuary.

Although they did admire the Roman Republic - the Senate, the Capitol, the architecture of Washington DC, and, of course, Washington’s reputation as a “modern Cincinnatus”, Hamilton’s pseudonym of “Publius” all reflect that ingrained admiration for all things Roman.

I planted mine beside the pond. I don’t know quite what’s in there - newts, beetles, skaters, boatmen - but I have no problem with snails eating hostas.

My favourite: telling a man that tying a knot in a plastic bag creates a Higgs-Boson particle because doing so gives weight to mass and physicists can’t work this out because none of them ever buys groceries.

The protestors should have put up a sign reading “ELEMENTARY SCHOOL—LONE GUNMAN INSIDE” which I hear is very effective in Texas at keeping cops off the property for hours.

It’s free in Ireland, with a long term illness cert. The Health Service buys it from the manufacturer for around $10 (ten) and we all kick in, via taxes, to pay for it because illness should not be punished.

I think B&Q will cut wood to measure, but you have to be there. If you have a building supplier nearby, they will almost certainly cut for you. Especially if you turn up in a small car and look pathetic (something Himself- 6’4” and built - managed regularly during our build).
