27/50
3/22 Carry-over

(7/10/20)

1. About - It is considered unlikely by those who were close to the case that the graffiti found on the Barton family's wall will raise new questions about the guilt of the three convicted men. (p 23)

14. French - Back in some war or other, olden times, them up there hanged a monkey cos they thought it was a French soldier. (p 37)
29. Nature - Away from the screaming wind and the crash of the sea, nature is allowed to bloom here, pushing away the harsh reality of the town, where chicken bones line the gutters and empty shop windows stare sadly at the deserted high street. (p 67)
31. Polite - Polite. (p 257)
32. Pop - Off you pop. (p 90)
35. Respect With respect, it's just a coincidence - quite a big one, I'll grant you. (p 51)
36. River - Like, why are lads watching what some girl bought from the River Island in Ergarth, right? (p 107)

44. Tundra - Brought down form the Tundra in Siberia; her witchcraft to be used as a weapon. (p 39)
22. Fossils (June) - Its coastline boasts no fossil banks, wildlife watching or boat trips out to the headlands... (p 29)

(7/16/20)

6. Central - "I had intended to bury myself in central Africa." (p 49)
46. Village - It was a country of rolling moors, lonely and dun-coloured, with an occasional church tower to mark the site of some old-world village. (p 11)
23. Lake - "An incredible blue Lake Como in the foreground and an impossible white mountain at the back, with Cadenabbia sandwiched microscopically in between." (p 70)

(7/17/20)

18. International - This essay and the one that follows are based on a talk I gave to the International Motor Neurone Disease Society in Zurich in September 1987 and has been combined with material written in August 1991. (p 1)

(7/17/20)

37. Royal - The Royal Navy was among the first to discover the link between vitamin C and scurvy, so it gave their sailors limes to eat on their voyages - bestowing on them both a significant military advantage and a nickname: Limeys. (p 351)
47. South Dakota (June) - Because the plane was on autopilot when it depressurized, it continued flying for 1,500 miles before it ran out of fuel and crashed in South Dakota. (p 288)

(7/20/20)

25. Maple - You could spot them eating pancakes with real maple syrup over at the Railway Diner, picking up T-shirts and pagerweights with lover suspended in resin at Curious Curios, getting their fortunes told at Mystical Moon Tarot, taking selfies sitting on the prince's glass casket, picking up sandwich boxes from Annie's Luncheonette for impromtu picnics out near Wight Lake, or strolling hand in hand through the streets, acting as though Fairfold was the quaintest and kookiest place they'd ever been. (p 26)

(7/28/20)

39. Territory - "Where the entire staff, probably half of them Mexican illegals with families living in Vibora-controlled territories, would know you were there and where we'd be putting every guest in the building at risk." (p 176)
12. Chilis (May) - All the foods were served with a generous side of sambal, a chili pepper sauce that was the Indonesian equivalent of ketchup and used liberally on everything. (p 264)

(7/30/20)

3. Bilingual - Combined with a different language with ignores spaces, tabs and line breaks, this means it is possible to write bilingual code which can be parsed by two different programming languages. (p 458)
17. Indigenous - When members of the indigenous Munduruku group in the Amazonas were asked to place groups of dots where they belong between one dot and ten dots, they put groups of three dots in the middle. (p 17)
30. Ottawa - In an unbelievably lucky twist of fate, the aircraft, flying with a dangerously low amount of fuel, had to make a stopover in Ottawa, where the fuel levels would be double-checked before the plane took off again. (p 319)
