  2. I wonder. Do you think flashing might speed up the practically non-existent service we receive from our dustmen? Or does it reflect only on the Northern side of the hemisphere?

  7. Steve - Well put!

    Extra - It's worth a try. Good hemisphere pun by the way!

    Completely - It does rather creep up and surprise one, doesn't it.

    Linda - Hello. Hope your day improved. I've paid you a visit, enjoyed it, and will return.

    Fancy - I'm glad!

    Justme - It was a bit of a conversation stopper.

    Can Bass - Your distaste does you credit; headlight abuse is an unwelcome trend which should be met head on.

  8. My two best overheards were : "Don't go overboard, it's only a latte", and "It went rotten from the top down. Eventually he had to have it sawn off."

  10. Lucy - I particularly like the last one; it persists like a window salesman.

    Laura - Usually rather alcoholic ones, I'm ashamed to say.
