Or, at least, the boiler’s thermostat is playing up!

Q1) Information

Q2) World Maritime Day (And World Rabies day and a few more, it seems)

Q3) the Czech Republic

Q4) Brigitte (not Brigette) Bardot is a pretty well-known animal rights activist (My father used to say she was his girlfriend, but I don’t think she would agree if we asked her).

Q5) the Drifters (I saw him live, in Barcelona, many years back. I’ve never been big on concerts, but I thought I should go and see him. It was interesting, for sure.
