Not a flat mein schaft, then?

I never mastered sough dough bread but I love to buy it from those who are good at it. As for the dough being wetter in your recipe,I often make it that way (ie ordinary bread and not sough dough) as I think it encourages large bubbles which I like.

I think the berets were a give away for French tourists but there was confusion as to whether the cameras indicated Japanese or Americans. They can't have got it right all the time and they were difficult to train because the scraps on the pier(prawn casings esp) meant they had low concentration levels. Not many Muslims around at that time ..... but maybe there were chapters based in Glasgow or the larger towns that included them in the training process.

Not widely known but there was a rogue element trained at the https://www.shieldaiglodge.com/explore/falconry who experimented with training the local seagulls to identify "foreign tourists" from their head gear and for them to disrupt their fish and chip takeaways with unusual flight paths. They rationalised this as some kind of a boost to the local economy whilst "protecting" the local inhabitants. There was talk of a prosecution but they claimed they were "doing the lord's work" and that no training was carried out on the Sunday.

I would paint baby lambs' eyes on them and while they are distracted arrange for them to be deported to some shithole country with an alligator pool paid for with crypto.

Certainly an alternative. Is it in India?

What a coincidence! (Was it contracrostipunctus Interruptus? ) Much easier to understand with those pictures☹️

We had an Austin A40 and I think it had a crank handle that may or may not have seen action . We then had an Austin A50(A55?) and I don't remember if it also had that accessory.

I think nearly all of them could be used but maybe Heavy Fuel is most direct.(also brilliant in its own right,as are they all mostly)

Is it an illusion for us to think that with our minds we can somehow "stand outside" the physical processes? Would this be a common illusion ,to think we are somehow independent of our environment rather than an admittedly highly elastic and dynamic but intrinsically incorporated part of it? (Is that related to Descarte's huge lever?)

One thesis of Rankin's documentary was that this was fuelled by the semi industrial need for fresh cadavers in London and Edinburgh ,and that Jekyll may have been (based on?) one of those doctors (one entry for the public and a back entrance for the passage of dead bodies) Plenty of odours and emissions in those men's nocturnal activities.

Something similar happened to Robert Louis Stevenson.His first manuscript of Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde was also destroyed by his wife (for similar reasons according to Ian Rankin,I seem to remember-he said she may have thought it was "too explicit"** ) https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2000/oct/25/books.booksnews **He made a documentary about the book and the author (I think they were/are both from Edinburgh)

She develops a scheme to recover the child, and I wonder whether we can ascribe any "motivated reasoning " to her? She goes to a third party and proceeds to groom him in the apparent realisation that this will entice the robber monkey to join their little group of 3 plus the infant. I doubt she had grooming in mind.Did she persuade herself that it was so as to achieve her main goal of recovering her stolen infant?
