Most people on here know I like pulling chains, some still like the exchange others just don't bother. It is all in fun as I am here usually with a big grin on my face typing my responses.

I find handyandy, goad, bott, among some others are fun to exchange with, as I think they take it all with a grain of salt. Sometimes newer people to the site don't quite know how to take me or if I am being serious or not.

You're on!

Way too advanced for me, coquette. Can you dumb it down a bit ... like, 'Is this one the castle or the rabbit? How does it go again? Hoppity hop, right?'

Great idea. It'll be in the 2nd edition.

You might also add a section on how to drop the queen. GoaD and I have been refining our technique at this. (It cost me 1200 pounds for counselling and an armadillo though.)

Letting the armadillo go is always the hard part; be strong, one day you will forget all about it.
