There’s barely a page without a surprising fact…whether it’s about a vacuum flask, a hawk or a bilberry. […] Begin the book as you would a moorland walk, happy to put the route map away and just follow where the sheep trods take you—then you’ll likely find the surprising turns and unexpected views a suitable reward.
—Nick Small, Caught by the River

My butler reads 'Scullery Maids with Big Jugs'.
I'm not familiar with that publication, but I feel I should be.
You could have finished by falling off the chair again. I've always loved subtle humour.
