caranfindelAs instructed, here are my bits of randomness. Both are from my recent trip to the UK. This time, neither involves cemeteries or bees.
"Mind the gap" makes me so happy. I don't even know why. It's just so British.
I love that there is a maritime flag that literally means "stop carrying out your intentions and watch for my signals." Does it work? And if so, can I put it on a t-shirt?

Michael - "I have a diver down, keep well clear at slow speed." Or maybe "My vessel is stopped and making no way through the water."
Lucifer - "You are running into danger."
Is anyone left who could use "My vessel is healthy and I request free pratique?"
