COLD DARK ROOM

[Lyn W]

Ancient Athens was a place I'd have liked to visit.
The Greeks invented tragedy, comedy, geometry, philosophy, biology, democracy, history, prize-giving, punctuation, proof, politics, persuasion, boxing, tightrope walking and the steam engine.

They've a lot to answer for!

There was a play about that wasn't there? The Taming of the Screw

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

They get stuck in their throats?

The Greeks believed that otters ran into the open mouths of crocodiles, ripped out their entrails and escaped again through the open mouth.
Silly Greeks.

You're thinking of the Henry James novel, "The Turn of the Shrew".

Extra yummmyy.
In Morocco you can't buy tinned beans, everyone makes their own, with the tomato sauce and everything.
They find it astonishing the Brits have so many in the supermarket and no one makes their own at home.

Its as much as I can do to open the tin and put them in the microwave - if I had to make my own I'd never eat them!
