I'm glad this was brought up.  I've been wondering what happened to "dove"
into the bushes and the glass vessel "shone" in the light.  They seem to
have disappeared in what I read in the US and are replaced with "dived"
and "shined". Now I understand better what is going on!

Jane in Vermont, USA where we are having a lovely summer day!  My
appreciation of 80o F (28C) is much stronger after the heat wave with
temps. up to nearly 100o F (37C).  I used to think 80o was hot!
