A combination of re-decorating, tidying, and assembling flat-pack furniture has prevented me from writing my usual articles this week. It’ll be business as usual next week, but for now I thought I go for some light relief for you all to enjoy at the end of a hard week’s work. Some of these were given to me, others I made up. I didn’t quite make it to 50, so if any of you can help feel free to add a few suggestions.
