OpenAI and Watermarks
Your store does not appear to carry the fish images as a wearable product such as a shirt like your ;-D non-poker-playing ;-D -- cats.
Might you have them in shirt availability already or might they soon be available in such form?

Bodnant Gardens: one of Wales' little gems
Thank you!
Your comment Aug. 23, 2017, in answer to my question and in confirmation and elaboration of Veronica's contribution Aug. 22, 2027, alerts us to the fact that Bodnant sells forsythia.
Do such sales include care information about light and watering schedules and about what fertilizer to use and when?

Lord of the World: a review
Thank you!
Online sources give me so many interpretations of tribulation novels!
So I hoped to finetune the search term by an added specification, such as might the tribulation novels -- of which Lord of the world is ancestral -- be fictionalizing or historicizing something about Jesus Christ or His same-time followers or His subsequent-time followers?

Macclesfield Treacle Fair
Thank you!
Apple crumble makes me think of hopefully a recipe or of possibly a reference in your sister Veronica's wizzleys!
Might your artisanal-food son rely upon a Beswick family recipe that Veronica might use?

Quasi-sensory experiences: religious visual and auditory phenomena
Thank you!
My search term Catholic Encyclopedia Sufism brought up an article even as the latter gives no sources or suggested further information.
Might that be characteristic of Catholic Encyclopedia articles that their articles provide starting points for all but bibliographic and further-information sources?

Roman Ghosts in Britain
Thank you!
These Roman apparitions intrigue me as to their purpose.
Might the aforementioned apparitions be there either to confirm the historic validity of their presence at a certain place at a certain time or to confirm or counter some detail about that presence?
So many things to understand...!

Soil Enhancers
Thank you!
The first sentence alerts us to the fact that "Fertilisers are chemicals that stimulate plant growth, but the industry that produces them is oil-based, and as oil becomes more expensive and scarcer, fertliser will be more costly as well."
Will there be a few, super-expensive oil-based fertilizers for some time or will the resource scarcity result at some point in oil-based fertilizers as a thing of the past?

Benedict XVI: a life
Thank you!
Western-side ponders associate death and disability with the sole two reasons for monarchical abdications.
(There's actually a third, in the cases of overthrow such as of Richard II, correct?)
Might death and disability and overthrow be three reasons for papal abdications?
Or would abdication be unnecessary in the forced, third case?

Rewilding the Isle of the Thundergod
Thank you!
Online sources give no etymology for Pickmere --not even for the known -mere! -- even as they give Windermere the etymology from German Wînand, Old Norse genitive singular ending -ar and Old English mere (“lake, pond”).
Ancestry gives Winand the meaning "battle bravery" (from wīg "battle, fight" and -nand, "courage, bravery").
Now what might Pick- in Pickmere possibly mean?

Rewilding the Isle of the Thundergod
More trouble with the spell checker. I just noticed that it changed a word from crofters, the right term for small highland and island farmers, to crafters. When will the designer of this linguistic atrocity develop a wider vocabulary.

Spell checker yet again. I tried to tell you the correct pronunciation of mere, but it refused the phonetic spelling. I will spell it out letter by letter: m e e r. The word rhymes with beer.

I don't know, but she might have preferred the title lady to countless.

Not far from where I live is a small lake called Pickmere. There is a large lake in Cumbria called Windermere. Mere as a term denoting a lake is pronounced mere.

Life of a Chalk Stream
I do not know of such a book, but my French is not brilliant.
