How about Octopussy's for the Ian Fleming one (I think it was one of the lesser well known Bond books and movies) ?

I'm clueless as regards the Lobster......

Just thought of this - but God knows where it came from -

Americans call some types of lobsters Crawfish (Craw) and a river crossing can be a Ford.............. Crawfords ???

Teabone,

Well done (and no I am not ordering lunch) you are spot on on both. I'll just have to get tougher with clues and maybe start up a special thread for Jockey.

A Yorkie or a Lancy with any other name is still a Yorkie or a Lancy.

Hi Guess,

Wot - no lunch.... no problem

.

I will probably see you tonight, but if not, good luck to you and all the people on Soi Selakem - its sounds like its going to be a good one.

Teabone,

If you solve this one I will buy you a beer and to remind everybody:

A Yorkie or a Lancy with any other name is still a Yorkie or a Lancy.

Sorry teabone but Dawn has pipped you at the post so a beer awaits Dawn.

Happy new year to everybody.

Wish I could, but not a good idea. The dogs at my house are already going crazy with all the fireworks!

Happy New Year to you & your lovely wife!

Actually, it was a bit of an easy one for me - it's the bar where my boyfriend used to hang out & where his friends work!

Ken, are you serious or just taking this totally off topic?

For sole sponsorship (you are the only one sponsoring that dog) it's 7,000 bt per year or 3,500bt for 6 months. Multi sponsorship is cheaper at 1,800 bt per year & 900bt for 6 months.

OK,

Oh, and Happy New Year Ken! Hope tonight's a blast!!!

OK,

The answer is Yes to both questions. I'll sponsor a dog for 2007 (sole sponsorship) and yes I was deliberately taking it off topic. Sorry.

Hope to get a little chance to enjoy myself tonight but not holding my breath. Maybe I'll manage to squeeze in one or two.

Actually, Dawn, I managed to squeze in more than a few and had a visit from JD and JW about an hour ago, you would have been very welcome.

So take it as read, that I will sponsor two dogs in 2007. Guess and Crawford or whatever. Up to you. Will pm you to sort out details. Happy new year.

Where I come from this freshwater critter is called a Crawdad

Guess - no problems about being pipped and I hope all went well last night.
You (or anyone else) might like to exercise your grey matter with this -

'The old Italian was correct.'

All the very best to all for 2007 / 2550.

Teabone.

Thanks for the Beer and good company Ken, all the very best for 2007.

I'm not sure what the cocktail you gave me was, but my head was thumping a bit when I came round today, needed two mugs of tea just to contemplate starting work.
