So hardwearing!
Lottie’s hand symbol indicates “two horns” while Glenn’s indicates “three diners”. The presence of a head between the digital gestures introduces all manner of new meaning.

Blossom Cooper was the single finger specialist and alas, she is studying overseas.
The French Foreign Legion perchance?
I hope that the two Mapplethorpes have made some trips together with their father, at least as teenagers. Otherwise it seems that one of the father’s reasons for traveling was to avoid spending time with his family

Kneel before Chod!
Chod farms… do they only have the BIG cod? Is this a 19th century call-back joke in disguise !?
You missed a perfectly good opportunity to name the Bao place “Bao Rogs.”
I’m not certain I can ever forgive you oh who am I fooling, you’re forgiven.

The Lembas bao are okay, but the ones made with Dwarven Zweiback require determined jaw muscles.
Yeah. Bao are made by the Hobbits of the Westfarthing. Didn’t you know that? Famously by the Bearfoots, the Hoggbottoms, and the Haung-Zheng families.
I shudder to think what grows on Chod Farms…
Where is John Noakes when you need him?
Y’know, we haven’t seen any evidence at all that Stephen and Hetty disagree about anything other than where their father’s ashes should go. I’m starting to think their father’s “Sort it out for yourselves!” was just another way for him to avoid his parental responsibilities.

There are times for a slow, tender dissection of the great Onion of Emotional Subtext, and then there are times to just drop it into the Three Frames of Deft Dialogue Veg-O-Matic.
My grandmother left me her Veg-O-Matic when she passed away. Turns out it’s a very useful little kitchen tool!
Lottie’s coat is amazing.
Lottie unleashes a lot of coats in this story, definitely one for jacket fans.
