You rae an unprincipled swine, Colyer. I am having to

You think that's bad? A certain Mr. Chapman posted a link a
year or so back that I foolishly followed. My entire open
plan office was assailed by shouts of "SPOON MENACE!"
emanating loudly from my desk. Fortunately they just put it
down to me being a total lunatic, so no damage there.

Ah yes! Spooooooooooooooonguard!!! For happy kittens!
Spoonguard, I always thought, looks remarkably like one of
the shock cords from my old Karrimor bar-bag.

I got my FLJS mate with this one <URL: http://www.framleyex- (http://www.framleyex-/)

He said it was the "tea urn with a bear's head in it" which
realy did the damage...
