  1. I'll have subject c, with emotion d and conclusion d. And a side of b and a little of option c.

  2. For me it has to be 'other' all the way!

  3. Agent: A very intelligent selection, if I may say so.

    Grannymar: Sorry, you'll have to specify the Other you have in mind, or we'll be unable to proceed with your request.

  4. I'd enjoy a post about other people's weird habits and guacamole. Two of my fave subjects.

  5. Who are the best wishes people listed after you? Should I know them? I guess that's an other.

  6. Yes, Bijoux, I too enjoy guacamole. How to catch avocados at the moment of perfect ripeness my holy grail.

    Other than that Nick has lost me. Not literally. Still, it is Easter. Maybe he is playing a coquettish hide and seek. Will he be found?

  7. Bijoux: I'm taking notes - people's weird habits and guacamole, check.

    Susie: I've no idea who they are. They claim to be my employees but I don't remember hiring them. Then again, they could just be a figment of my crazed imagination.

  8. Ursula: Indeed, avocados at their ripest, delicious. So can we expect a post on spotting the moment of peak ripeness?

    A coquettish hide and seek? Could be. As you know by now, I'm a riddle wrapped in a enigma.

  9. Wonderful!
    You are now fully integrated into the 'tick the box' culture.

    The trouble is that I am not, so have no idea how to cope with the future form of your blog...

    Have pity....

  10. John: Oh, so weird habits and guacamole are up your street as well. Unfortunately I think it might be tricky working them into every post.

    Helen: Box-ticking hardly existed when I was a kid. Now it's like some awful plague you can't escape from. But don't worry, this temporary aberration will soon be over.

  11. Liz: I have an interesting image of someone very weird, very angry, who hates beetroot, rides a bike, dislikes chefs and has no interest in handbags.
