With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it?s worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed last week.
Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey" died peacefully at the age of 93. The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in...and then the trouble started.
Yeah, yeah, I know but I had to chuckle.

On another note, the remains of Arthur Wynne (the inventor of the crossword puzzle) were moved to the Liverpool Cemetery. If you'd like to visit his grave, it is located 8 down, 14 across.
