Miscellaneous

One symbol:



It hasn't rained here, really rained here, in a while.

Also, today I learned that a bailiff can come to collect debts and take away non-essential things such as your television or blender. This is mostly in the British system. To me, a bailiff brings in witnesses and helps keep the order in a legal court.

The things you learn sometimes.

  1. Yay for the umbrella-symbol!

    Did you read that in a book or did a bailiff pay you a visit? ;)

    A bailiff is really just a blanket term for legally-empowered guardians I think. I've read books in which the term was used to refer to figures who functioned like sheriffs, mayors, military leaders or guards.
