Hey, @dpduk_, any particular reason my parcel reached the local depot, sat there for a few days, then got sent back? After I'd paid extra for special delivery?
@dieworkwear I've just picked up my walking boots from the cobbler after the zips rusted shut. New zips, and the leather conditioned and protected, for a quarter of the cost of new boots. And these ones are already broken in and comfy.
@Ben_Aaronovitch I always assumed a footman or similar would open the door, toss a farthing to an urchin, and the urchin would scurry off and find a cab. Now I hope someone will be able to provide definite information.
@fakehistoryhunt I was in the Colosseum the other day and saw somebody approach a wall with pen in hand. And then a random Italian punched him in the face and yelled at him. It was glorious.
