This morning saw a little utilty run on the Fuji, once I'd finally fixed the front end puncture (binned the tube after three unsuccessful attempts to patch a pretty nasty pinch puncture of my own making). The ride was short and productive; taking in such heady attractions as the bottle bank, eggmonger and Post Office.

— (Craig Horowitz, Is Rikers about to Explode ?, dans New York Magazine, 10 oct. 1994 → lire en ligne)The life of the medieval woman in pursuit of her work was nothing if not sociable: when she went for the water at the well, she would meet neighbours for a chat and gossip, likewise at the communal oven where the bread was baked, at the stream where clothes were washed and at the market where her surplus produce was sold. Butchers and bakers were usually men but the tranters (pedlards) or regrators (forestallers) were predominantly women. Eggs, poultry and diary (mylke wymen) were their stock in trade. In Lynn, one eggmonger was waylaid but St Swithun came to her aid and miraculously mended all her brocken egg.
