Post by Ajarn Philip »

Several links have been posted recently on different threads. Shall we try and keep them together?

I gave up at 12 ("which is the smallest"). Is there a really small blob I can't see? Or is it a trick question?

No, Mary, kittens never too low-tech for me! I loved them.

And now, Gemma, I can see why you are so good at Latin...

a. You have the patience of a saint.

b. You're a fiend!!

It's an evil quiz and yet so addictive. I was playing it the night before some of my exams which maybe wasn't the best thing to do but I just sould not let it beat me.

Still havn't got past 80.......

Here's a little glimpse of life in Thailand. Ingenious, if a little dangerous. The trains never run on time, so they must have spotters out.

If you're asking yourself 'why?' I can only say there's a standard response here. TiT - This is Thailand...

Last week I woke up coughing and spluttering, eyes streaming. I thought I might be seriously ill, but it was just Mrs Ajarn preparing her breakfast...
