Nice boat name.
The best one I ever saw was printed upside down. It read: "Don't panic".

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Mortsafes were devices that were made of iron or iron-and-stone. The idea was that the weight of them would deter grave robbers.
Oftentimes, they were more complex and designed of heavy iron, padlocked for even greater security.
They could only be removed by the two people who had the keys. Mortsafes were placed over the coffins for about six weeks.
When there was sufficient decay of the corpse, the mortsafe would be removed and used at another grave site.
Over time, groups were formed that made and rented mortsafes out to graveyards, especially those near medical schools.

Very enterprising, renting them out . And of course, after a month or so, the contents had matured beyond use.

Not quite, but I did work with coinage analysis software, so the pay office knew what they needed from the bank to make up all the pay packets

I've been observing at the constellations the last couple of nights as they've been very clear and easy to pick out.
Haven't seen these Starlink satellites though - I didn't even know this was a thing

A mate put me onto satellites a couple of weeks ago. I have been outside with dog at sunset... Seen nowt. Bugger all. Is it a myth?
Even used In-The-Sky.org to work out when and where. Nothing.

Definitely not a myth. Saw 4 and a fireball a couple of nights ago feeding the horse. Last week saw three and the ISS. The ISS is bigger and brighter than a satellite. You need a clear night.
