And as I noticed recently, can pull recipes from behind a paywall - looking at you, NYT

Sorry, I've Got No Head - a kids show, but has a lot of familiar faces (if you watch British comedy).

I'd argue that a "no crowdsurfing" sign would, for a punk band, be like a red rag to a bull... Given that she'd attended lots of their shows in the past, I think she'd have had a better gauge of how likely crowdsurfing was, sign or no.

Crowdsurfing only works well if it is clearly telegraphed by the surfer, and willingly accepted by the crowd - think like an enthusiastic trust fall. Given that she's 5'6, I can't see how she would have been landed on full force unless there was basically no warning, or the rest of the crowd around her totally bailed (in which case no-one would jump)

Makes sense for numbering floors - ground is zero. How many floors should there be between -1 and 2?

A decent guide to tea grades here. Even with higher end teabags, any tea dust created (e.g. if the teabag gets squashed) gets trapped inside the bag. The tea dust makes for a more bitter cup.

My partner has hearing loss, so her speaking volume sometimes doesn't match the background. Even when it's just the two of us hand signals are useful, as they can be dropped without breaking the flow of conversation. We use basically the same as a sound tech uses to indicate back to the desk at a show - upturned palm lifting for louder, downturned palm lowering for quieter.

Rockbox, by any chance? I have fond memories of playing doom with that scroll wheel...
