LS, I don't know you well enough to judge whether that was sarcasm, so no, it wasn't obvious to me. But my remark earned me another being told off from BH - interesting smiley - smiley

S'Ok, I wasn't telling you off smiley - hug

To be honest, I'd deliberately left it open to interpretation...

No, I didn't feel told off by you smiley - smiley
And I guess it will turn out to be a wise decision that you left it open smiley - biggrin

There is only one thing worse than being Gosho, and that is not being Gosho

There was no telling off, and it wasn't interesting... well, not to me anyway.

Mildly amusing that both LW and RF were excited by the fact that Jelly Babies have names...

Tried posting this earlier but the server problems had other ideas....

Zebra Cube for the big one.

Penguin Roll for the black tube with white centre

Male and Female Spog for the blue and pink speckeldy ones.

Are the circular ones tyres or slices of tree trunks? If the latter, only 2 years old obviously, so just saplings really.

Strawberry tyre? Yellow Ring?

Black Rod for the plain stick.

Ummmmm...

I like "zebra cubes". I mean I like the name.

I suggest "Noddy wheels" for the coloured wheel-shaped ones with the black centres.
