Items of Notes

1. The British Cox is a very tasty eating apple
2. 'Don't walk on the grass' seems to be a universally understood and obeyed rule despite a)there being no signs to indicate the rule, b) the blank inviting-ness of the grass, and c) the quality of the lawns (generally low, certainly not meriting avoidance).
3. The woman in the pew in front of me on Sunday conveyed to me during the service that I did not sound Canadian. What does this unusual remark mean?
4. Today I tried out several new things; my umbrella, my raincoat, and the bus. All were found to be satisfactory.
5. It is ill advised to eat salt covered nachos, followed by salty flavour-packaged noodles, followed by rich, calorie enhanced, triple-layer Madeira walnut cake.
