Buckets of Names


Magdalen College Oxford and Magdalen College Cambridge - both traditionally pronounced Mawdlin. Perhaps some other establishments should introduce a new tradition along similar lines; perhaps Filton College should be pronounced as King's College Cambridge..

Looking at Facebook of late I'm amazed at the number of people who are just plain nasty. Facebook, and social media in general, has given them a platform for their nastiness that never spilled beyond their immediate social circle in pre-social media days, but being able to see comments from all and sundry is an eye-opener. That said, it's almost exclusively limited to news feeds - probably because of the anonymity - so there's an argument for not having news feeds on Facebook at all.


We saw some collapsible, silicone bowls in a kitchen shop a couple of weeks ago. Didn't really think them much use in a kitchen environment; however, yesterday I had occasion to nip over to road the our local caravan emporium to get a clip and saw a collapsible, silicone bucket. It dawned on me that a caravan is an ideal home for collapsible equipment due to the space-saving element.
