TFW you spend your long weekend reading about your job X D
Anyway, enjoyed this immensely because I am a total nerd. Also this contained references to one of the men featured in A Field Guide to the English Clergy and one of the misunderstandings referred to in Once Upon a Time I Lived on Mars. I just mention this as a weird coincidence.
Once again I came away from this with a long list of book recommendations, including but not limited to Mark Twain's sassy reverse translation of what he perceived to be a French butchering of The Jumping Frog - you know that's going to be SAVAGE.
