An interesting little known bit of history is that Alexander's elite squad had chemically treated strips of cloth worn as wristbands that would change color at a certain time of day, just like if the had synchronized wristwatches, so they all knew exactly when to attack. They were known as Alexander's Rag Time Band.

One 12 count package of three ply toilet roll for one can of kidney beans, or any dried legume.

I can offer some fava beans and a nice Chianti.


I'm only drinking water for another two weeks, but hide the beans by the lookout.
I have a pocket-sized hand sanitiser up for grabs.

Leave the pies at home where they're safe.

In a pie safe.

What is a pie safe by the way?
I've only come across them in American books. In a Karen Rose book the heroin kept her guns in one.

Speaking of vultures, I've heard that they are the only birds that fart. I guess it makes sense, considering what they eat.

Put on yer army boots and give the bad bug a good stomping. Then we can all get back to normal.
