Anyway the point is that I am learning things every day despite my extreme age.
The latest thing is that if you hold the zip fob by the end you get much more purchase. This is important for me since I buy cheap jackets and the thing that usually goes wrong is that the zip fails.
But the strange thing is how come I didn’t know this? Or maybe I did and somehow forgot.
Recently I discovered that if you put plates into the dishwasher the counter intuitive way, they stack better. You can add more plates and put the large ones closer to the edge. How come I only just discovered that?
Ok it’s not quite the equivalent of finding the source of the Nile or discovering how fusion works, but it will suffice. Small pleasures.
