Funny yet grave.
I read a copy of the earlier edition of this book many years ago, and enjoyed it tremendously. It is at once light-hearted and yet in deadly earnest: we can laugh at the humour and at the same time be gently reminded that we are finite creatures and that some day, sooner or later, we are going to end up as an inscription on a tombstone. As someone once said, the inscription on a gravestone may be brief, say, 1948 - 2016. It's what we manage to put into the hyphen in between that matters, and it is this that we will be remembered for. Or not.
Philosophy lesson ends.

Comfortable
I liked this t-shirt so much I bought three of them. The first one I wore underneath a waterproof that has a Velcro fastener, and the material rubbed up badly where it met the Velcro. No-one's fault, just an observation. Sprayway is a recognised quality brand in the outdoor clothing world and these t-shirts live up to expectation. Great!

A cheap and cheerful hammer drill
I bought this drill to replace one that had been stolen in a site burglary. Bearing in mind that I am allegedly retired now, I did not want to spend vast sums on a drill that would in all likelihood not get a lot of use. With that in mind, I bought this Katsu one. All I can say is that, having had it for a few weeks now, it appears to fill the bill exactly. I have used it for hammer drilling and for chiselling, and it works very well. I cannot say anything about longevity, but for something that is likely to get only light use, why pay more?
