Is it just the badges or the pregnant women wearing them? I'm genuinely interested.

Crimp

If you cook below a glass ceiling I wonder if the regular temperature changes might stress the glass or if you'd get more condensation than on a normal ceiling? Though if you can work it so part of it opens that would work.

A cull might be kinder on a natural level than what happens in some areas. Someone I know moved to the country and one day they saw a fox taking their dog's food. They were surprised as in the country you rarely seeing a fox. Then they noticed it had a square shaved patch on its abdomen, and they were told that 'humane' pest controllers in some cities are trapping foxes, spaying them and releasing them into the wild. Unfortunately town foxes don't know how to cope as they're used to living above ground rather than under it and scavenging rather than hunting, and if they can't breed they're not going to become part of a family group, so their lives are pretty miserable. I think there should be much tougher laws against leaving food waste lying around or feeding foxes (I've seen several people do that round here) as getting that right would make a difference. By the way, we do cull dogs. If they're abandoned by their owners and no one wants to take them in, they're usually put down - they don't get to roam the streets in packs.

Or try carpet/upholstery shampoo on the fabric. You could ask at the carwash by Sainsbury. They can do most things.

Evils

This morning it took so long to get off platform 13 that a guy behind me started talking to a girl and by the time we reached the barriers they were on first name terms. Did they get as far as arranging a date, I wonder?

People often say you should arrange up front to pay in instalments, with the final 20% due on completion. That way you can check in on costs as you go and there's an incentive for the builders to come back and finish the thing. If you feel confident you could offer to add a bonus of say 10% for completing on time and on budget maybe.
