- It is for my ideas – I can only remember one of them, and they were good (Well I thought they were at the time. Probably crap, really.)

- It got swept away in a clear up, and is now probably being recycled into wallpaper or some such.

Manky is a word I did not hitherto know – and had to look it up – and it has the most venerable lineage: from Old French manque, from Latin mancus ‘maimed’. I think you SHOULD write your notes on the back of manky old envelopes. I certainly shall. Thanks for manking my day!

- Funny that it comes from the word for lost in French, (which the envelope now most certainly is) when here it means dirty. Thanks for looking it up.
