@toby_lfs You have Hallowe'en, all saints' day & all souls' day. For me, none of these three days is celebratory.

@h2g2_Guide Turing was convicted of "homosexual acts" having already produced genius; whether or not his conviction prevented further genius is a moot point in this context. The first passenger trains travelled above 10mph. A rant indeed but with little fact on which to base a philosophy!

@TwopTwips avoid a fine during a hosepipe ban by simply not using a hosepipe.

@toby_lfs You need to decide whether you're making an EP or an LP.

@toby_lfs Horns don't ring; you're thinking of bells. That's not to say that a lot of Horn blowing didn't happen.
