Hi Emmily,after much trouble with crashed servers and error messages, I've eventually finished subbing your clothes pegs entry. You can find the new version here:
A14481786

Please let me know if it's ok.

Hunt the Thimble, shouldn't be in caps, should it?

>A peg can be used to replace the knob on an older car's manual choke.<

There's quite a few Entries about cars, I couldn't choose which one to use, so I hoped the Sub-ed would choose one.

>Artists use pegs to suspend their brushes when in oil or in a cleaning solution, to keep them supple.<

You've changed the meaning here Bel Artists suspend their brushes in oil to keep them supple, and in cleaning solution to clean them. Not sure what was wrong with what I said

'Artists use pegs to suspend their brushes in oil to keep them supple or when in a cleaning solution.'

Emmily

Sorry, I completely misunderstood the sentence about the brushes, I'll change it back.

I have no idea about cars, which do and which don't have a manual choke, apart from that, the search function was only back yesterday. I'll go and have a look at the cars, hen come back to you

Okay, Bel

Hmm I suppose it should really be 'Cars' - A143641 then maybe someone will notice how desperately in needs an update and give it one.

Emmily

I'll go and have a look, there must be something more interesting.

This one came up when I searched for 'chokes'
A563654

It looks nice, what do you think?

Yeah, Okay

Emmily

Sounds enthusiastic

I've decapitalised the hunt the thimble, although I'd put it in capitals if it's the name of a game, but I'll go along with what you say here.

If the Eds change it back to caps, you can blame me

Assuming we're both happy, you can click that button to return it to the Eds at your convenience.

Emmily

Great, thanks Emmily

Hi Emmily, guess who's subbing your entry here:
A14611457

I couldn't find that much, but managed to add two links.
Please, have a look.

Bel

That looks just great, Bel. Click that button at your convenience.

Emmily

Ok, consider it done

Emmily, have a look at our calendar: only two more days to go - hope it's still in PR by then.

Oh, right, if you mean what I think you mean, be a and do it now. I've picked out of turn, but that was to prevent an argument from continuing, and I explained that in text box. There's been quite a few picks up for grabs, did they all get grabbed.

Oh, and I've only managed to find one so far.

Emmily

You mean: I should dare doing it now? On the other hand, you're right, the others have had their chance
already, and I really want this one, haven't looked for others yet.

OOOohhhh you you

I must remember to ask Trevor, our antique specialist who comes to the charity shop to value our antiques, if he knows if there's one of those choc tins anywhere local that I could take a photo of.

Emmily

Hey, I'm no , you told me so

A photo would be great, I think GB wanted to look out for such a box to take a photo of, too.
Icy suggested that I'd take a photo for my current entry, maybe I'll really go and try that. Taking photos of things is really difficult, don't you think? I've never tried that before, I guess I'll have to learn quite a lot.
