Surely a pay-per-view webcam link to SAAP could be set up for the American Robin spotting?
Posted by bogue at March 30, 2006 01:16 AMDon't think "obliviously" is a spellcheck mistake - it's what passes for wit amongst the kind of person who says "exsqueeze me" instead of excuse me. Be thankful you didn't know this already!
Posted by P at March 30, 2006 07:31 AMThat's why I've never made a fortune, Bogue. I didn't even think of that.
Hello P. "Exsqueeze" is horrible. Brrr. No one has ever said that to me, but if they did I would insist they pronounced it "egg-zzhqueezgh".

A big fat fly flew by, fat Flo's flat
Posted by jonny at March 30, 2006 04:56 PMI can't even read that, let alone say it, jonny. I'll suggest it next time, once I can actually say it myself.
Posted by robin at March 31, 2006 01:41 PMI have cogitated this *twister* since my father uttered it to me as a small child.... It brings up a number of points.
1. What does fat Flo look like?
2. Where does she live? (I always imagine a council flat in Fulham for some unfathomable reason).
3. Did she notice the fly?
Also, the entirely tangential matter of the *twisters* brief tale in relation to the old lady who swallowed the fly.
