Thank you to Ruth Matthew of Great Ashfield for the pictures of unusual latrines – one like an arum lily and an-other a pink orchid. Several of the men in the office have expressed an interest.

Thanks too to Ferial Evans who tells me her daughter borrowed her car and the satnav “came back with a sex change; now a man with a soft Irish brogue. My daughter told me that she could not bear that bossy woman!” It seems as if I now need to borrow Ferial’s daughter.

One more delightful homophone from Marian Allen in Bury St Edmunds who, last year, received a note through the door from her milkman asking her to ‘Please bare with me while the round is being re-organised.’
