Strangely this seems to fit. | Well there you go, as you say very apt.

I think my cold remedy has cut in 'cos i'm sitting here with my fourth large hot toddy, chuckling at the idea this bloody golf course could be called... Trumpton... Big Ears'll have something to say about that I suppose. Oh dear, I think I'd better go to bed and sleep the effects of the medicine off. |
