Farewell Bear Facts Gdansk

Its definitely time we re-establish that sometimes these entries will be short, like the first one… otherwise Im going to get nothing else done this month.

-Madame Szyszko-Bohusz takes her name from my address when I lived in Krakow (and therefore indirectly from this gentleman). The full address was [number] Ulica Szyszko-Bohusza, Przegorza?y; and I was very proud of learning how to pronounce it. A pride for which poor Stephanie ended up having to pay. Though if she thought that was bad (and she did), little did she know then that there was even such a place as Qikiqtarjuaq…

- Question Im sometimes asked: Why did Madame S-B have her expensive and delicate bassoon open and assembled in such a way the last joke would work? Answer: because Carolyn has explicitly told her that thats her only way of summoning help in an emergency; and she is not the sort of woman to take chances…

(PS Apologies for slightly deviating from the advent calendar order here - Im going in alphabetical order, which is how the episodes were written and recorded, but not quite how they were broadcast. But Ive always felt it was the proper order, and thats why when the complete CDs are released in January, you will find that alphabetical order has triumphantly been restored…)
