> Oh, I accept new undertakings all the time ...

It's easy to be obsequy-ous in the wake of that one.

Ouch! I'll find it easy to hold a wake after your obsequies any time. Very punny.

Once again, many thanks to you all.
At time of writing, I haven't had a chance to try out your suggestions as I've been away for a few days.

I will see what sort of a Pickles I can get into when I " 'ave a go" this evening. Watch this space for progress reports!

Now click the heels of your rhuby slippers three times and intone, "There's no place like home... there's no place like home..."

I will when I get them, Anna. I've been delayed on account of being hard of hearing - I've been following a yellow, sick toad.

Anna, that was great!
And if Rhuby's been following a yellow sick toad, he's probably not a mellow yellow fellow just now. (Apologies to Donovan Leach.) Especially if he ate the toad.

Jackie said to Anna: And if Rhuby's been following a yellow sick toad, he's probably not a mellow yellow fellow just now. (Apologies to Donovan Leach.) Especially if he ate the toad.

Did you ever see The Secret Policeman's Other Ball? A British comedy musical type show. Donovan shows up on stage, sits down and is about to begin singing when someone in the audience yells out "I thought you were dead!".

Donovan considers that for a moment, appears to be going to say something portenteous, then replies "Not yet !".

Maybe the guy in the audience saw him eat a toad?
