I read my (Canadian) husband the bit about the difference between England and US and dodgem/bumper. He said that the Canadian way is to bump but say “sorry” every time.

I lived for 7 years in a yurt once and also miss the round living. And I love roller coasters too!

Lovely post.....

You're writing a craft book?? well I've just spiritually pre-ordered the hell out of that one!

Also, I would love to read a novel that begins, "Once upon a time I lived in an apartment with a round room I used as an office, and I have always missed it, missed that round room more than perhaps any single dwelling of my life."

I too love roller coasters, but I have always HATED to spin. My favorite thing is to drop.

What a welcome interlude on a rainy day here in the Midwest--crits, carnivals, and clever carts. Thanks!
