Too many people are told they’re not good enough and get held back from fulfilling their potential. I’m proud of who I am.
@Michael1979 Hi @Michael1979
Please can you contact my brother @JonHollis9 and tell him that I am yet to find a Goat Hunter for him (the business card turned out to be somewhat misleading) though if he’s at all interested I might be onto something with a Ghost Hunter.
My 1st day in my home (a minute from here) I popped in to buy ‘your cheapest hammer’. Mine was packed up in boxes. He lent me a hammer because I didn’t need to buy one saying, “We’re a different kind of shop.” Anything I could buy from there from then on I did.
A different class.
Sad to see the news on FB that Neal Chapman from the Twickenham institution that is Percy Chapman & Son passed away on 7th January. Best wishes and condolences to his family and friends.

@trevorwds0@Miss_Snuffy The story is deliberately aetiological. It is a story to explain why things are the way they are. The author makes this clear in Genesis 4 by making reference to other people.
Oedipus is not an aetiological story, so the two are not comparable for your argument.
