a wonderfully apt thread for you to surface in, na?


It kind of appealed to me, not least because I can only half-remember the last time this general area of discussion cropped up - happy as a goldfish, me!

Great to see my bro is still alive and kickin' :)

And speaking of appeals, thanks, ma belle bel, let me clap your kind thought with a ringing greeting from the stygian gloom that is Wales at this time of year.

the stygian gloom

There's only one way to exorcize "a stygian gloom", Maverick.

"Once moor" will rid any man of the moors.

I gave up exercise for lent - I lent the bicycle to a priest ;)

Priests have been known to fortify themselves against "stygian gloom", as well, Maverick.

Aye, but it's easier to keep a steady course on a bar stool than it is on a bicycle, you say.

"Once moor" to that.

> steady course

Sheesh, you shoulda seen the barstools on Friday night - they were pitching and tumbling on a wild and frothing main!

Now I am landed once more, And o’er a milder Zone my pinions spread...
