I should be ashamed to say that I canāt really remember much about my school set books (apart from Chaucer, whom I loved). In my defence, I was reading lots of Russian stuff but prolly just to be irritating. Oh - and rude French stuff. Erm - anyone forran nightcap?

Meanwhile in Australia:
Australian man suffers double eye injury in magpie swooping attack after āconversationā turns ugly (note, picture of bloke with eye injury)
What started as a āone-way conversationā with a magpie has ended with a Victorian man airlifted to hospital with serious injuries to both his eyes.

Glindemann said at that stage he had ānot dropped my mealā, which appeared to have been a mistake.

Most Aussie things have evolved some form of venom
Got to love the laconic Aussie style of āI became a bit concerned at this stage."
