Oh dear, I hope you feel better soon.

This delightful version J S Bach’s Goldberg Variations no. 28 has soothed my rage toward carton tops. ‘ Musick has Charms to sooth a savage Breast, To soften Rocks, or bend a knotted Oak’ Have a listen, it’s so nice!

Congreve is such a doofus.

Cheers mate. I’ve never had a throat this sore in my life.

As a man who has gone out to dinner a lot, and who’s lifelong friends are some of the most successful restaurateurs in New England, you speak the truth, sir.

We have some great diners here in New England, Buka.

Am I the only one around here who has never had Covid? I think I should change my name to Mary Mallon.

Last week, I went to buy some distilled water from motor car maintenance shop, Halfords (to water my orchids). As I was paying for it, the shop assistant said, in sotto voce, “You don’t need to buy that, it’s just boiled water! Get it out of your kettle!” For a second I contemplated educating him lest he damaged the battery of someone equally as ill-informed, but I just couldn’t be bothered. I have lost the will to correct people!

When I first went to Scotland as a Uni student, I went to Boots the Chemist to buy some rubbing alcohol. Before they would sell me any, they reached under the counter and pulled out a huge ledger, opened it to the next free line and asked me to write my name, address and age and the purpose for buying rubbing alcohol! I thought I’d be transported to the 1950s!

It’s a new EU thing:
Why are bottle caps now attached to the bottle?

It doesn’t say why but I assume it’s to stop all those kids aspirating them and asphyxiating
