This outside my local church. Nice little picture of a cup of coffee and biscuits. Does God prefer a cappuccino or a flat white, do you think?

Can’t imagine it would be an evening of light chat.

This on a prescription for sleeping pills. I think that with sleeping pills you’re kind of hoping that they will cause at least a certain amount of drowsiness otherwise they may as well be called ‘Nothing’ pills. The pharmacist didn’t find this amusing in the least. “Oh, it’s just the law“, she says. “Yes, I realise that, but it’s funny“, says I…

Oh well.
