The OED says you could look for them floating in your tea, or hanging
on a grate.
I might mention, the world being a small place, that I attended a
lecture this weekend on "Ptolemy's Calculation of the Earth-Sun
Distance as a Case against Scientific Realism." It was given by
Christian C. Carman of CONICET, Universidad National de Quilmes.
Wikipedia tells me that Quilmes has two soccer teams, one founded by
the Scots, and one, not. Also a brewery. I see why the British
would want to invade there.
