Ouch

After tidying some more and packing and moving stuff around I amassed a pile of things I didn't want and decided to give them to the charity shop. Only, in carrying them I think I've strained a muscle. I hope that's what it is. If it's not then I've probably collapsed a lung or something.

Gaming

Inspired by the frequent bouts of Literati with ang_grrr and ajr I went out and bought Scrabble Deluxe today. It's lovely. And I can say as much without even having unwrapped it as yet.

Why haven't I unwrapped it? Because I've been busy playing another game - Buffy. And boy, is it complicated. I think by the end of it Raz and I had wrapped our heads around what we were meant to be doing and we could probably manage to get through a whole game again without having to consult the instructions. But maybe not.

Stamps

Once upon a time stamps were perforated sheets of gummed paper. They were perforated in order to let you pull them apart more easily before licking them.

Now many stamps come in the form of stickers which don't require licking or dampening to stick to envelopes. However, they are still the same shape with edges that give the impression of something that has been separated from a perforated sheet.

Why?
