Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

I'm impressed that you typed out Llanfair PG right. Did you copy and paste it?

No fair. You gave it away.

Seriously? What do you think? The example I found had hyphens, though. Never saw that before. They were like ugly little training wheels, so I took them out.

No. They're there just to make your mouth water. It's good to know that you're eating a real animal, and not just some anonymous "meat" or "fish".

I have this thing about being looked at by my dinner. It makes me imagine abject horror in their hapless little eyes while they watch me devour them, and the thought pleases me. It's sort of like playing with your food. Yes, I'm a sick puppy. I imagine I would rather like this pie.

Not that I'll ever be qualifying to make the Big Move myself, or anything. :wink:
