I can wait. But then, after seeing Mel Brook's Men in Tights, every single Robin Hood movie is now ruined for me. I couldn't even fully enjoy the original Errol Flynn Robin Hood after that.

Couldn't bring myself to watch that one. I think I am pretty safe.

You think that's suggestive? Here's a verbatim part of an email broadcast a few moments ago:

"Is there a 32 H in the building today who could try on a bra for me?"

It can be darned difficult to work here sometimes.

What part of Scotland are you from, Tom?

I still think that quiver + Janey just swished past + low hanging fruit picker is thoroughly funny, but

that H is mindboggling.

What part of Scotland are you from, Tom?

A very long time ago Wester Ross. I spent a few years in the Edinburgh area too. But I've spent far more time out of Scotland than in it, and I'm only in the country a few days a year these days.

Which end of the world are you from?
