Thanks Steve, a whole week without one, that's some diet!

Re: medalling. Even worse is “We expect them to podium.”

Do rowing teams medal by sticking their oars in?

They get presented with a large wooden spoon

Or a warge looden Spoonerism?

Stevea,

I once took part in a pub quiz (not too serious)...the question was...
What was Spooner famous for?
Someone answered ... Being a s**t stirrer! ... think we gave him a bonus point - it was late in the evening!

.......or even a stit shirrer!

Thanks, everyone, for the meddling and peddling and other funny stuff.

Jigjag, I enjoyed your AA stuff and especially liked the name of the secretary, Honor Mission.


All pedants... Earlier this week I read a book by a very successful writer, with years of experience behind him. One sentence irritated and annoyed me...

There's a march in support of refugees from Hyde Park to Trafalgar Square.

What is so awful about Hyde Park that people are, apparently, fleeing from it?

... it depends who's on the bill.

I liked that, Steve!
