Relationships with people are easier for me than spatial relationships. I was crap at geometry and I freely admit to being the sort of woman driver you don't want to meet in a Devon lane.

Lane discipline is almost nonexistent east of Suez. Lanes are for wimps.

wimps can turn into furious beasts if not handled with care ;
just like gentle bees can sting nastily .

Nastily strange stories can be found anywhere on the net. Some of these stories contain unsavoury elements like violence, drug abuse, sex, and torture, then again, some of 'em are pretty tame.

Tame birds that talk always fascinated my middle son. Once I gave him a large toy parrot that repeated what you said to it, and he insisted on taking it with him on holiday, lugging it around the entire globe.

Globe Franchises is an obscure company trading, in anything, from an office in the docks area in Baku. It's tentacles range wide and far over the known world and the branches form webs with fine tendrils which creep into your earholes and eyes and long may it continue at the steady 3% growth in our expertise at good living.

Living in a Muslim state can be rather annoying for those who wish to party and drink, but in some ways it's a lot easier and safer than living in the wicked West. You shouldn't steal or they'll take your hands off.

Off the top of my head I would imagine that would entail us having to type with our toes. I'm not in favour of that.

That punishment of hacking off hands is totally over the top as far as I'm concerned. Why maim a person for life so he is a burden on someone else?

Else and otherwise mean roughly the same, but you can't start a sentence with else. In Devon you hear "Have you got some cream? I'll get you some else." which isn't standard English.

English batsmen have a reputation for being unable to occupy the crease for anything other than a short time. This leaves them with plenty of energy for partying.

Partying was the English batsmen's downfall downunder. The Aussie boys trounced them in a 5 - 0 white wash.

Whitewash is a cheap paint often used for slapping on shippon walls to hide the grime of bovine ineluctabilities. It's very cheap but it soon needs another coat.

Coat of paint is exactly what I'm putting on my basement. Looks much better than it did! 1950's knotty pine panel - ugh!

Ireland is a place I visited once on business. I didn't hang about after a quick look at the cops.
