• Offa’s Wheel

  I wonder what went behind the invention of the wheel? Was it created after many months of trials of objects of varying shapes and sizes by our Stone Age ancestors until they got it right? Or perhaps the wheel had been invented many eons earlier than the Stone Age, and kept a closely guarded secret,…

• Questions

  “A-coochie-coochie-coochie-coochie-coo!” giggled Athena in between blowing raspberries at the small baby on her lap. The baby gurgled and laughed back amiably. “Hera.
