did you see that ludicrous display last night

I named my kid Moss after Maurice Moss.

Coincidentally the doctor who looked after him immediately after a slightly prem birth was Dr Moss. My wife went "we're naming him Moss. Not after you though"

Named my third kid Saffron after the daughter in Absolutely Fabulous so later in life we can say "Saffy, darling"

> Moss is ancient, and grows at a glacial pace

It doesn't grow at a glacial pace though. Common misconception. That's lichen above the polar circle.
