I did my PhD with one of the regular guests on Lateral - I’m not sure how atmospheric science would have prepared him for his subsequent career as a puzzle setter and quiz master, but he seems to be very good at it! ---

I received a small parcel while I was at the gym. ![IMG_4758](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/3X/f/8/f8abf0e4ac4bb486458cc9e0011945c68edff82d.jpeg) I had to go around to the back door to get inside. ![IMG_4761](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/3X/a/9/a969368976a1abc7ef82232bf2e9f27247c394ee.jpeg) It contained a box. The inner box was put in a plastic bag, and spay foamed into immobility. I had rip enough of the foam away to pull the inner box out. What ever the foam is, it came apart in big chunks, which immediately started shedding little pieces that have gotten everywhere. Edit: pictures are hard. ---

Hmm, usually it’s done the other way for that reason. The expanding foam is sprayed into.a plastic bag to form around the piece. ---

Yeah, I was a little surprised when I opened the box, and found it glued shut with foam. I even flipped it over to see if it was better that way. ---

I have a GP appointment and LOTR soundtrack is on the background in the waiting room. A bit of a weird experience. Waiting for a bit, it turns out that the clinic was playing Classic FM. I didn’t know there’s a Classic FM and that LOTR is deemed to be classic enough to be in their playlist [Previous page](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/oy-wut-just-chat-the-return-of/821.md?page=152) [Next page](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/oy-wut-just-chat-the-return-of/821.md?page=154)
