I'm sorry folks - every time I scroll down the forum and see "Sewers Unpicked" I read "Sewers Unblocked" - sewers as is drains and ninja turtles not people who sew! Is it just me? Embarassed

No I often see sewers as in drains as opposed to sewers as in needle pulling thread.

It's like Catknit's signature "Just one more row before I go to bed"

I keep wondering why a newly married lady wants to have an argument before bed time???? Laughing Laughing Laughing

Tut! You daft lot!!

I always used to read 'misled' as 'mistled' and still wonder what being mistled is all about (you have to say it really....)

And one more:

As a child I read Shopfitters as Shoplifters! Couldn't quite understand why you would advertise being a shoplifter!
