It's getting so hard to come up with them now! As the very old saying goes, there are three things that benefit from a darn good  Hopefully 2 of them are no longer applied, but one is true! |

I presume that's your clue Nightowl, and not just a general comment? Does seem familiar, but will have to go into the deep recesses of my mind. |

should i post one? ? oh all right then ;D a boat with nothing is never silent Sorry about that. You carry on Barbara, it wasn't a very nice one anyway. The answer was, "A woman, a dog and a Walnut Tree; the more you beat them the better they be". Apparently Walnut trees do better if beaten up with a big stick, loosens the sap or something! PS An empty vessel makes the most noise (I think I'd better go away and think up another one) |
