Today is the age of comments and so here is some commentage, arranged from random to not-quite-so-random...

can your brain do 720 degrees of rotation and stay in one piece?

Not normally, no, although after this last week I'd believe anything's possible.

Patron Saint of the Luddites? Ned Lud is the closest you'll get, I think. (see Brewer Dictionary of Phrase & Fable, online here: ) --Katie W, coming out of anonymity...

Good, that's answered a long-puzzling question of mine. Next!

Apropos of your recent, ahem, entries, about XXX Furniture: I recall a website, back in the dim-distant web-past which featured just that. Furniture porn

Bwah-ha-ha!! We like! These next two refer, I think, to the internet-dating saga and the danger of accountants:

I've only ever met one person who described themselves as an accountant who knows more about balance sheets than I do.

I don't think you should admit this in public, dear boy, I really don't.

Oh! And I know a non-boring accountant! Only young yet though, so give him time... KatieW, again; can you tell I'm at work? ;)

Tooth Fairies...

I only got 20p. Sob! (yikes, perhaps this is age reflective?)

Re: phonecam photo of my recycling (which is still growing at an exponential rate)

Where are the bottles of Port in that recycling pile? Mind you, I've not had any more since you introduced me to it at summer camp last year! TTFN Dave.
P.S. I meant to say that it looks mostly like beer and Wine, where are the port bottles....?

Port? Me?! Shurely Shome Mishtake. Moving quickly onwards: school...

Mock A-level marking advice: Choose a less popular subject. Tom

Perhaps there's sense in that suggestion. Any ideas? Lastly

Do any of your students read your blog?

Some find it by accident, I suspect, and some of my colleagues have been known to drop in occasionally. I don't have reader stats on purpose, though, so I have no idea. In fact, I have no idea about many things, so I'm off to make pancakes. Hurrah!
