I assume so. I’m not familiar with “mapper”, are you still in Scotland?

> Let’s be clear about the purpose of the veil. Islamic clergy argue that women and girls should wear hijabs and cover themselves to avoid attracting sexual attention from men. Generally, Islam asserts that women who do not wear hijabs are wholly responsible for being preyed on by men. Clearly, this is an alarming perspective when applied to seven-year-olds.
> In Islam, children and young girls are not required to wear a hijab, burqa or niqab. Nevertheless, many girls are pressured into wearing these garments at a young age if they have the misfortune of belonging to a hardline or fundamentalist sect. The real question here is not what Islam says or doesn’t. The question is whether this is compatible with British values. Surely, we should all agree that pre-pubescent girls should not be required to express ‘sexual modesty’ by covering themselves.

Some sad news.
I emailed Holla a few days ago to let her know about Club, and asked her to tell Polar as well, because I know they were in contact elsewhere. She replied:
> I fear Polarisera may not be alive; she always said she was "very old," and I cannot find her very particular brand of manic obscenity where I think it would exist.

Nice lunch out with my mum, and have cemented her view that I am a technological genius (I am not) by reinstalling a calendar app on her very elderly tablet: it mysteriously vanished a few weeks ago, and I took a successful punt on the actual data still being stored locally and accessible to the newer version in the app store.
(My assumption is that there was a security issue with the years-old version she had and it was force-deleted.)
As an added bonus, I showed her how to actually create new entries in it, so she is delighted to be able to put appointments in it as well as use it to see which recurring bank charges are coming up soon (my father set them up before he died).
