In a futile attempt to try and get this thread back on a sedately track...

Earlier this evening I noticed a telegraph pole painted in a shade of burnt umber with a touch of yellow ochre.

I forgot that those things excite the British, especially combined
We'll do better.
I like wearing flannel, got so much of it.
You thought bringing up flannel was somehow going to be less exciting subject matter?
:nono:
There are exactly twenty-six letters in the English alphabet. Twenty-six back to front and front to back. I invite you to count them for yourself.
:think: That ought to tie AB up for a good half an hour.

Interesting observation there TH and as such inappropriate for this thread. Now that it's been aired however one feels obliged to point out that the American 'alphabet' has 25 as it often dispenses with a vowel that resembles a horseshoe. I mean, what has 'U' ever done to you?
I apologize for the latter inadvertent pun...
What? Snow doesn't grow, you goof.

Hey AB, any truth to the rumor that you've been putting together a DIY show for the BBC skewed toward Baker Street devotees with the working title My Craft Homes? lain:

Oddly enough, no there isn't and I deeply resent the accusation along with your utterly cringe worthy puns and the besmirching of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the process. I believe that any such rumours floating about are vapidly related to a youthful indiscretion whereby I petitioned Channel4 to start a similar series in the vein of auctioneering/sleuthing with "Holmes Under The Hammer". The less said about the feedback the better. Most of it was unrepeatable in polite company anyway...

Like we haven't seen your prison manufactured Arthur's Con Doilies on the Holmes Shopping Network.

Polite company? You expanding your outer circle, Dante?

Well it's a 'Lost World' we're living in after all...
If only the idea had taken off so well...
Polite company? You expanding your outer circle, Dante?
Since unfriending you I would say that's a given...
