We have no specific receptors in our skin for sensing wetness so when you sit down on a wet seat you are not sure if it is wet or cold as we are relying on thermal receptors.

You’ll just have to lick it in future to check for wetness so.

Supposedly Drogheda have a load of fans over in Turkey

Just starting it. I’ve not read any of his others. I have it on audible and it’s interesting but I wonder if a lot of his facts are made up/interpreted.

It does give a sense of wonder about the body and how we got here. For example for you to be you since the dawn of life every single creature/ancestor carrying what ends up being your genes had to survive and successfully mate and then who they mated with was itself chance to get to you. I would imagine listening to it on drugs or drinking is the way to do it.

I presume you know there’s a back entrance to Hodges Figgis up Duke Lane Lower?

The one and only time I was in Cafe en seine was on some work gig. We walked out that back door and into the Sporting Emporium where we proceeded to lose our nuts playing cards. Id say the sporting emporium installed that back door
