    3. Makes perfect sense to me... lol Geo. Definition of cricket You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!

Water is a most precious resource, and wars will be fought for it. Indigenous farmers use the water, there is no unemployment, and they provide the second largest source of income for the area. Under the glaciers has been found a huge deposit of gold, silver and other minerals. To get at these, it would be necessary to break, to destroy the glaciers - something never conceived of in the history of the world - and to make 2 huge holes, each as big as a whole mountain, one for extraction and one for the mine's rubbish tip. The project is called PASCUA LAMA. The company is called Barrick Gold. The operation is planned by a multi-national company, one of whose members is George Bush Senior. The Chilean Government has approved the project to start this year, 2006. The only reason it hasn't started yet is because the farmers have got a temporary stay of execution. If they destroy the glaciers, they will not just destroy the source of especially pure water, but they will permanently contaminate the 2 rivers so they will never again be fit for human or animal consumption because of the use of cyanide and sulphuric acid in the extraction process. Every last gram of gold will go abroad to the multinational company and not one will be left with the people whose land it is. They will only be left with the poisoned water and the resulting illnesses. The farmers have been fighting a long time for their land, but have been forbidden to make a TV appeal by a ban from the Ministry of the Interior. Their only hope now of putting brakes on this project is to get help from international justice. The world must know what is happening in Chile.

    3. Definition of cricket You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!

    3. From The Times, Wednesday, Nov 17, 1819 posted with permission of the transcriber, Petra Michinson. Geo. LAUGHABLE INCIDENT. - The Radical reform meeting holden upon Coalfell-hill, on the 1st inst., was productive of a ludicrous circumstance at a village near this city, which a respectable informant relates in substance as follows: - The country people in that neighbourhood had heard that a general rising of the Radicals was to take place on the 1st of November, and in consequence they looked forward to that day with the utmost apprehension, expecting to be plundered of their all, if not murdered: the fact of the cannon having been mounted on the walls of our Castle, in the minds of many, completely confirmed this idea. The dreadful day dawned, after a night of anxiety, and every hair, like Hamlet's, stood on end. One man, however, mustered courage enough to go to plough in a field not far from his house. While so employed, fear, "embodying airy nothings," conveyed sounds to his ears which fancy instantly converted into the brazen throats of the cannon of Carlisle-castle, pouring out destruction upon the insurgent Radicals. This was enough: home he ran and spread the alarm. What was to be done to save the sticks? A lucky thought pointed out an admirable method. He instantly set to work at making a large hole in a corn-stack, which having effected, the household furniture, apparel, linen, &c., were instantly thrown into it pell-mell, and the sheaves on the outside were so carefully replaced, that the most sagacious Radical would not have suspected the deception. The farmer and his household now tremblingly awaited their fate. Time, however, undismayed by the commotion, rolled on as usual, and evening arrived in due course; but the Radicals came not. At last, the jibes and jeers of some of the neighbours convinced the man of terror that he had made himself very ridiculous; and the furniture was withdrawn from the stack to re-occupy its more appropriate place in the mansion. But the most serious part of the story is yet to come. There was not sufficient time that night to replace the sheaves; and two fine large swine, of considerable value, entered the breach, where they laboured so violently with their snouts as to bring the superstructure about their ears, and were smothered to death long before the farmer had risen from his bed. - Carlisle Patriot.

    3. From The Times, Tuesday, Nov 9, 1819, posted with permission of the transcriber, Petra Michinson. Geo. SKELETONS IN CARLISLE-CASTLE. --------------------- (From the Carlisle Patriot.) TO THE EDITOR OF THE CARLISLE PATRIOT. Sir, - On account of a report being circulated, that two human skeletons have bee lately discovered in Carlisle-castle, one the skeleton of a lady, and the other of a child, I was induced to visit the Castle, together with Mr. ANDERSON, the surgeon, to examine the bones of these skeletons. I can assure you, we were not a little disappointed on finding that none of the bones were human, but belonged to some of the lower animals. The spine and rib mentioned in the Patriot of last week, I have also examined, but cannot believe they are the bones of a child. When, and for what purpose, these bones were placed in the Castle, I do not pretend to know; neither have I yet been able to determine to which of the lower animals they belong. Had it not been for the regard I bear for truth, and there being an account of the lady and child, with many conjectures respecting them, in the Carlisle papers of last week, I should not have troubled you with this; by the insertion of which, or by acknowledging the mistake in your next paper, you will much oblige your obedient servant, THOMAS BARNES, M.D. Carlisle, Castle-street, Nov. 4. ----------------- To-day, we insert a letter from Dr. BARNES, on the subject of the bones found in Carlisle-castle last week, which that gentleman thinks are not human, but the remains of some of the lower animals. On what were conjectured to be the bones of a woman we laid little stress, for they were too much decayed to admit of satisfactory scrutiny: of the supposed spine and rib of a child we spoke with greater confidence, because an eminent medical gentleman had pronounced them human. The tooth of some large animal, and other bones, have since been discovered in or near the same place. Having no object but truth, and no favourite theory to maintain, we are willing to belive that Dr. BARNES is correct, though, we confess, the presence of costly silks and silver with brute bones is not a little puzzling. (From the Carlisle Journal.) - As to the elegant female dress, the silk to which this high sounding name is given was found apart from the bones; and there is no appearance of its ever having been made up into any kind of vestment, being more like an old silk handkerchief than any thing else. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    3. From The Times, Friday, Nov 5, 1819, posted with permission of the transcriber, Petra Michinson. Geo. Last week a discovery was made in Carlisle-castle which has excited considerable interest. The workmen employed in the alterations now going forward, while cutting loop-holes in a wall several feet in thickness, which separates the area of the Castle from the magazine and the principal defences, discovered a quantity of bones, and the remains of a very elegant female dress. The large bones are presumed to be those of a woman. The backbone and rib of a child, newly born, or very young, in an almost perfect state, were taken out, and have been seen by various persons. The dress is composed of French silk and silver, and appears to belong to the age of Elizabeth. Some persons think it probable that the lady, by some frailty, had incurred the punishment of being walled up alive, not uncommon at one period of our history. Others, more plausibly, conceive that some secret murder will account both for the place and mode of sepulture.

    3. From The Times, 26 Oct 1819, posted with permission of the transcriber, Petra Michinson. Geo. Carlisle-castle is now undergoing very important alterations, additions, and improvements, in order to make it the principal military depot for the north. A considerable number of infantry will be permanently quartered within the Castle, the cannon will be mounted, and the principal defences much strengthened. We rejoice at this, for so venerable and useful a fabric should not be permitted to crumble beneath the tooth of time with indifference. - Carlisle Patriot.

    3. From The Times, 26 Oct 1819, posted with permission of the transcriber, Petra Michinson. Geo. <wondering what the difference between fatal and very fatal might be.> The Times, Tuesday, Oct 26, 1819; pg. 2; Issue 10760; col E MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. - A very fatal accident occurred to the Lord Wellington coach, on the road between Kendal and Shap, on Sunday evening se'nnight, near the inn at High Borrow-bridge, known by the name of Huck's. The hill from the north to this inn is upwards of a mile in length, the upper part of which is an easy descent; at the middle part, there is a short space of level road where carriages are usually locked to descend the steeper part below. In the dusk of the evening, the Lord Wellington coach, in coming down this hill, was overturned with eleven passengers, inside and outside, four of whom were most dreadfully injured: one of them died on Monday, another on Tuesday, and the other two were severely hurt, but are in a fair way of recovery. The inside passengers escaped. An inquest was held on the bodies on Tuesday, when verdicts of Accidental death were given in both cases; it being proved that the accident did not occur, in the slightest degree, from the negligence of the driver or guard, but by the unexpected breaking of the reins, whereby the horses became unmanageable. The names of the unfortunate deceased are, John NICHOLSON, of Renwick, Cumberland, whose right thigh was nearly cut through, much lacerated, and the bone broken, and otherwise much mangled; and John ELLIS, (from what part is not known), who had both his legs broken, was otherwise much bruised and lacerated, and had sustained an injury upon the brain, which his medical attendants believed was the immediate cause of death.

Roz Trivvies are already practising their wellie throwing .... oh sorry, that should have read jelly throwing here y'are .....catch Liz i vote that the restaurant provide a large lazy susan or conveyor belt be installed at the table...where upon, every five minutes a nameless trivvie will yell SWITCH and all plates will move to the right. there shall also be no food fighting, however tossing tidbits of tasties into the open mouth of a waiting trivvie at the other end or side of the table is perfectly allowable. roz - off to perfect her peeping baby bird mouth look...and wondering just how far a trivvie can toss a tastie tidbit. dibs on all seafood and steaks.

    1. RE: [TRIVVIES] Reunion - Saturday

    3. I suggest at the front entrance to Birdland and then we can discuss where to go from there; from memory there was a biggish car park on the outskirts of Bourton close to a fish farm, but 'twill be too far to walk I suspect for those with mobility problems - really needs someone with more up to date knowledge than I though (mine is about 20years old). Alternatively as we will not be around after tomorrow evening we will just catch up with the decisions on the Friday night when we meet up with people Liz -----Original Message----- From: Sue [mailto:trivvie@btinternet.com] Sent: 01 June 2006 20:14 To: GEN-TRIVIA-ENG-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [TRIVVIES] Reunion - Saturday Importance: High Can you please put your thinking caps on - & suggest places where we can meet up on the Saturday ... I've suggest BOURTON ON THE WATER - & most people agree it's a good place to visit ... But --- It has lots of places we could go - and we need to pin it down to one or two --- and at the very least - Confirm a starting point - and 'car-park' - is not good enough ... :-)))) Today is the 1st June - the Saturday in question is the 10th June - so we don't have much time left in which to make our choices ... Soooooo - I NEED suggestions ........ Come on - don't be shy ...... Thank you ....
