Also known, according to Wikipedia, as roly polies, woodlice, slater bugs, cheesy bugs, sowbugs, doodlebugs, butcher boys, cellar bugs, carpenters, bed pissers, closed pork, parson’s pigs, bench biters, chiggy pigs, chuckie pigs, little pigs, potato bugs and gramersows, a list which one might reasonably be sceptical about, but in any event the scientific name for the family is Armadillidiidae, which is a nice name for an unprepossessing creature.
Today was Sunday and I had much work to do, but it was grey and rainy, normally the exact sort of day when one might think one would work, but in reality isn’t the best day to do anything at all other than read. I will have a late night.
