Flagging due to ragging?

But can you turn these flags into face-masks?

I hear that you can turn anything into facemasks. One wonders if one could repurpose used bikini bottoms, pay the donors $0.25c for clean ones, $0.50c for unwashed ones. Sell them for $20.

Gentle wragging, Donald.
Now you'll think I'm being precious......."ragging" rather than "wragging".

Kipling, Wodehouse, even GM Fraser spell it this way.

Who?

I did check. The weight of evidence was that ragging could be confused with a painting technique.........which didn't seem to be appropriate.

I've long since come to terms with that fact, if not for the reason you suggest.

I'm sure that you could arrange a better margin given your exotic contacts.

I don't think their undergarments are big enough to use as face masks.
