Its a condition called "phyllody" (Bill Oddie)

If you had said "phyllody" in the first place instead of all that vivi nonsense we would all have guessed it right away - glad I had an allotment committee meeting tonight so I was able to waste my time doing that instead keeping you occupied.

VC is the ultimate boomerang - if you previously said something you wanted to forget or even just changed your mind you are in deep trouble - Leslie Welch had amnesia compared to her :-)

Doh! I was so nearly right....

Gotta say VC, you do know how to get us all obsessed and excited by dangling the carrot of an unusual word in front of us ...........

I have to admit to being everso slightly (actually completely underwhelmed.....!) disappointed in the answer ............ 'Spose you did warn us .........

I'm still thinking about giraffes in custard ......

Yep! Totally agree there Vix, as I found out the other night! Proper "Switched on"

Shen, very worrying! "Be afraid, very afraid" (Maybe you have to be mad to be a mod) Although the rest of the modding crew seem to be of "Sound Mind"
