- The suspicious untimely unnecessary loss of a friend from long ago (see John & Pat's comment on Dec 8th).
- December 1st summer storm in Manhattan - since when does that happen?
- The violent death of a friendship (not poor MB).
- The sharp-tongue that sleeps on the couch.
- The demise of two foundations - it always gets to me when local businesses are forced out of operation. It happened to the fishmonger on the corner of 14th & B. At first I thought the breakfast shop had been Pretted out of existence, but then I noticed the newsagent nextdoor run by the odd little man with limp had also gone. And 10 yards down the street a proud poster describing the investment in retail going on along the totally inaccessible north side of Euston Road.
- A tornado, two tornadoes, ponies flying.
- Fire and brimstone by solar activity on Newsnight (abhorrers of weather reports).
- Frantic lunatics on the street (and, not unrelated to the above, in their hotel rooms).
- December 7th lightning storm in London.
- Vomit based alarm call (it's always a worry when you wake yourself up like that, particularly if you hadn't been drinking).
Could these all be related? What's next? War Rocket Ajax?
