Everyone’s a Critic
Robin Hood, according to legend, was a good guy.
However, if you were a grotesquely rich person at that time (anyone who had more than three goblets), you might take issue with this description.
You might think of him as a scamp. An annoying, be-tighted, forest dwellin’ scamp.
Below is a cartoon from last week’s New Statesman.
Ephraim’s Favourite Snack
My great-grandad, Ephraim Middleditch, had a favourite snack—which he created thusly:
Grate some cheese onto a plate.
Douse it with vinegar.
Squish them together with a fork.
I’m guessing, but I suspect this would turn a blandish cheddar into something that tasted more mature.
Snazzy cheeses were hard to come by after the war.

The Crabbot®
When things around the house need fixing, it can be tempting to employ a local human. They might be called Mark or Jill or Pete, and hopefully they can stop by “sometime this week.”
If you ask your neighbour for a recommendation, you can probably get hold of a very friendly and professional human—but what if I told you that I have an even more reliable solution?
What if I told you there was a robot smart-crab on the market, that can dwell in your basement—ready for action at all times?
Well, it’s true! For twelve easy payments of just $9.99 (plus tax), you can get your hands on a brand new Crabbot®.
Here are some key reasons to consider purchasing a Crabbot®:
Rechargeable
Cute
Hilarious
Good listener
Comes with screw-driver
Just wants to help
If you’re interested, don’t delay—contact me, via postcard, while stocks last.
