RHYMES WI...SHOOTING P. Or drinking with Mancunians?<br />RHYMES WITH... Pleased to see you using the term "autumn" rather than "fall" in relation to the next couple of months in New England. We will make an Englishman of you yet! You will need a deerstalker, a cricket bat and a Bentley.<br />DAZE OF WHINE Regarding number seven, I suggest that you closely inspect your "great guy", focussing especially on his ears where you may see evidence of his horticulture or werewolf growth.<br />REVISING LIFE Think of an industrial town somewhere in America's north east perhaps - somewhere like Youngstown, Ohio. Have you been there? Are you planning to go? It may be just like England's often overlooked Wolverhampton, a place I have never been.<br />MORNING AJ Thanks for calling by. Did you think you were dead because you had overindulged in Wolverhampton hostelries or just because you found yourself in the town?<br />ELIZABETH Perhaps you have over-reacted to the light-hearted banter about Wolverhampton? I am sure that many people from the south east of England would put northern cities in the same bag as Wolverhampton - Sheffield, Hull, Huddersfield etc and label them all as dull, post-industrial blackholes that ain't worth visiting. How wrong they would be.<br />HELEN Okay. Well why not do it then? Tony can drive the boat and look out for sharks at the same time.<br />MICHAEL Great additions sir! But I think the idea of reproducing the exact glossy recipe or packet appearance of a particular meal is totally impossible! Regarding 16 - this wouldn't apply to me as I wear ladies' tights. Fishnets are my favourite.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-62948802815290178492011-09-01T11:56:42.592+01:002011-09-01T11:56:42.592+01:0016.

Create a document that includes the seldom used ^ and ~ characters on your computer.<br /><br />18.

My list is exactly like yours, except that I have already done #14, I would change Wolverhampton in #3 to New England in autumn, and in #9 you have finally found something useful to do with those kidnapped whatchamacallits of yours. I have probably done #15 and not known it at the time. I do many things and not know it at the time, but that is a different post....rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-54013091820819508922011-08-31T11:40:20.200+01:002011-08-31T11:40:20.200+01:00Swimming with dolphins is kids stuff.

How about wrestling with alligators, flying with eagles, ruminating with cows, chicken rustling with foxes, wallowing with hippos, blood-sucking with vampire bats and hibernating with bears.Shooting Parrotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07503757845024102476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-48072211728188220002011-08-31T11:15:13.206+01:002011-08-31T11:15:13.206+01:00JENNY Simply...I have never been to Wolverhampton....JENNY Simply...I have never been to Wolverhampton. For me it is one of the great mysteries of the universe.<br />JOHN GRAY Tadpoles would be a lot less dangerous than dolphins which can be nasty feckers. Did you know that the killer whale is actually a dolphin?<br />ELIZABETH I will take your word for it ma'am. I am especially looking forward to seeing the town's Low Level Station which I believe is a real tourist hotspot. I wonder if they have any hotels in Wolverhampton.
