No thank you, I don't want to spoil my dinner....

My good lady won't hang the washing out unless there's an even number of togs in the basket. Straight up.

If I go to the pub and have a packet of peanuts with my beer, I always make sure I eat the half ones first and save the ones still together as whole nuts, to the end...

He said wisely.

Please join me and Arch and the Doctor in the Tea Thread.
Steven Seagal and David Tennant,
I will be nice to Arch and she can have David Tennant

I think you're 2 short there!

No, no, no! If he* was 19 in 1960 and is only 46 now, how come I was three in 1960 and am now 50? I've been cheated

And I'll have you know I'm not that short...

Hey Arch, I hope they are free range n's.

 

[Speicher]

Should we view this as an encouraging start to your posts on here?

Or could you enlighten me as to its meaning?





Oi, someone put a load of ns on here as their first post, and then deleted it after I put on my post - come back - you know who you are.

* few minutes later *
I have now worked out who you are, I have ways and means,. We are all very friendly on here really.

[Sherlock Holmes hat on (and pipe)]Well, let us see, my dear Watson. The single N after the comma is capitalized, signifying that it probably stands for "I". Therefore the 7-letter word following is probably a verb. Let us think: how many 7-letter verbs can we think of? The three-letter word before the comma will surely be an adverb or a conjunction - "Now" springs to mind. Consider the single 'n' third word from the end. It probably stands for 'a' - therefore the two-letter word following it must be a noun beginning with a consonant. Have you not solved it yet, my dear Watson....?[Sherlock hat off].

Very good! I've been doing a few of those codeword puzzles recently - you know where each letter has a number and you have crossword type grid with the numbers and a couple given to start you off and you have to fill in the words as you work out which number is which letter... Anyway, there's a lot of similar reasoning - must be a vowel, or can only be certain letters, because it's double...

With regard to the verb, you'd need to know the tense.... Now and I are correct. (and I've given it away elsewhere now...) But a isn't - that's a bit unfair, because it's not normally used on it's own. But the context might give it away....
