Right I'm off to bed.
So I'll leave you with a summary.
The Flamingos Tongues is
a) white
b) doesn't live in lakes
c) or in Africa with the rest of the flamingo.

Don't feel too bad Hd.
B'elana said algae is what flamingos eat, I simply agreed that *is* what flamingos eat!

You cad you. The Flamingos tongues is something else entirely. Like a hotel in Marbella or something.

Another summary:
- It is called a flamingos tongue
- It is not in Africa
- It is white
- It is not a hotel in Marbella
That really narrows it down, doesn't it?

Actually I don't even know where Lanzarote is. Is it Canary Islands? Isn't it amazing how you can suddenly come upon huge lacunae in your knowledge?

Come to think of it, I don't know where Marbella is either.

I really, really, must go to bed. (Caddishness takes it out of one, y'know!)
I did not expect to be within orbit of 100 posts, on this one so keep going You oly have to narrow down white things that aren't hotels in Lanzarote, Marbella or flowers.

I suppose I should have said remove.
What with my defunct definition of "circumference" from earlier I'm sucking at metaphors today.
