I was just thinking about old puzzle magazines. They were great. I liked acrostics and logic puzzles. They were fun.

I like spiders, but the possibility of suddenly having a hundred thousand rushing out and running up your arm....

I'm sure they are being treated well, but still.

One of the wool cloth making processes is "felting" where heat, friction and chemicals are used to open up the wool fibre. It used to be called "matting", and the chemical used was human urine.

The urine was provided by the locals, which earned them the nickname "Kruikenzeiker", jug pissers.
