So, he throws in the towel,
Despite Tessa Jowell,
Who might well consider
That he surely did a
Deed closely resembling a fou-al.

My towel joins yours in the, er, pond??
Who is this John Milton, ?

Word games in the foyer!
A game-starved salonista
Would definitely enjoy a
lexicological feast. A
good place to play,
This frivolous foyer!

I'm going away;
Going to play,
Shall rejoin the fray
Come whatever may
five days from today.

In the meantime can somebody tell me whether it's OK to quote clues from the daily press, and do we have to acknowledge. 'Twere courteous, I trow! Watch this space.....

Enters cautiously in search of Lil.

I don't (sadly) recognise anyone here! I may not be in the right place, but I must be polite.

"If anyone here knows the whereabouts of young asteroid as was, please pass on my regards."

We're over here at the moment F38024

Pheroneous, me old friend, come in and be welcome! It's good to see you again.

Er, I'm wearing a Halloween costume at the moment. If you unscramble the anagram you'll find me, Asteroid Lil.

The pleasure, truly, is all mine. These anagram things baffle me. I have spent several hours of my life trying to find one to baffle you in return. No luck. You are all far too clever. Anyway, glad to have found you. I shall, if I may, just sort of hang around until I pick up the threads.

*nope, she's still seing an image of Pheroneous - how could that be?*

Tatiana! I mean, I knew the face, and who could fail to remember that body, but the little grey cells work slowly these days.

**raises immaculately manicured fingers to lips and blows kiss** (In direction of rprupbp... ! Will I ever understand?)

What is this I find??
It is a 'RUBIC'S Magic', scrambled and unsolved. It must mean something. Is it a clue to the way out of here???

I unscramble all my Rubik's Cubes with a hammer. Much faster and more satisfying.

You can dismantle it without using any tools - let's see if I can remember how...

I think that if you twist one layer vertically slightly out of aligning, and one layer horizontally then you'll be able to pull out the middle cube in the top layer on the side that's facing you. After that it's easy removing the rest of the cubes.

Although the hammer method is probably better from a therapeutic point of view...

Or you can just *do* it in 1 min 30 seconds

I never could solve a cube.

Personally, I took all the stickers off and stuck them back on in the right places. A bit wonky, but...

I watched my husband struggle for several hours before deciding very definitely that it was Not For Me.

Jsssh! i dunno why didnt i think of that :

rightI'm off to fetch a hammer and dig out the half solved Rubiks cube from the attic
