Monday [16 till close of play]

(1800) Evening all. Includes some of the quiz answers below.

19.  They don’t write em like they used to

Then Bath-sheba bowed with her face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever. And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.

The king also said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon: And let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and blow ye with the trumpet, and say, God save king Solomon.

Then ye shall come up after him, that he may come and sit upon my throne; for he shall be king in my stead: and I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.

18.  As one does, Ian … as one does


A fascination with gravediggers probably began with reading William Shakespeare’s Hamlet. The sharpwitted characters appealed to an egalitarian spirit and English stoicism. The flesh and blood gravediggers I encountered had the wit and philosophical approach of their fictional Elizabethan forebears. The one thing I never appreciated about gravediggers is the sheer amount of physical effort it takes to dig a grave.

Well yes … hell of a lot of earth to move, innit.

17.  Er … um … anything to this, you think?


Right, got it:



16.  Home affairs






For Microdave:


Inflicted on you by on

    Ta, James. It looks as if most of the buildings in that 1887 picture are still there today: the clock tower on the Town Hall gives a clear location (mid river) from where it was taken, and even the building at the extreme left is still standing. It may only have one chimney now, but Google Earth shows 2 stumps, with just the left hand one remaining.
