I think there should be books of Rebecca "Discovery Mysteries" -- on the same shelf as Pargetter, Christie and Doyle. Vol. One: "Found Shopping Lists". Vol. Two: "Found Books". Vol. Three: "Found Maps". Vol. Four: "Found Teabags". I love the way your mind immediately begins a sort of forensic detection, examining and parsing out clues to build a back story. I don't know anyone else who does that and it is so entertaining!

American usage of Britishisms sometimes go wrong in an amusing way, like when an American asked me if she could address an audience as Ladies and Blokes. I suppose that's no worse than my usurping of "y'all"!

Admirable post, Rebecca, jollification personified, and an excellent mystery.
