    and no more clues for Q! due to the ambiguities inherent in his less than wonderful wordsmithing – OK?

  16. Unfortunately, I get the water closet thing a lot. Luckily, I’m not offended by it, but find it rather amusing.

    I’ve already had my guess for the day, I suppose.

    Are his initials BM? (Oooooh, who could THAT be, I wonder???)

    Comment by Wandering Coyote — September 18, 2007 @ 9:41 pm

  17. ross……i was trying to do this on tuesdays but got interupted for a bit.
    as for the minister of silly walks….i’m not sure we’ve ever been gifted enough to have a monty python character in politics here :D

    coyote….haha! you do get your question though!

    NO HE IS NOT THE MINISTER OF SILLY WALKS
    YES HIS INITIALS ARE BM

    now let’s see if GAB comes in and snares this again!
