That Enid Blyton was a Heroin addict?

Space with all its supanovae and general explosions would be silent to the human ear as there is no air to carry sound waves of an" audible to humans" frequency.

There is a town in Uruguay called Fray Bentos named after a local monk (Fray as in Friar) it was originally full of meat canneries.

wordswprth was at dove cottage, hence the lucy poem;
She Dwelt amidst the untrodden ways
beside the springs of dove

but where was coleridge?

[jojojoanne]

coleridge stayed in the lakes for a while no? i always thought that he did?

[Ice.Maiden]

Wordsworth & Colleridge were both romantic poets who had a fondness for nature. I love the works of Wordsworth.

[Goodsoulette]

figure, is that because of the golf and fishing thing? I take it, if in a storm, on a high hill and given a man and a woman of equal height and size, wearing the same clothes, both holding holding a metal object above there heads, they would both be as likely to get hit?
