is Col Mustard working? I think that's the question you need to ask first...

Another newbie, with another clever name, if I had a suspicious nature I'd probably be raising an eyebrow (but just the one) about now...

Col Mustard is a bit of a fashion victim. you should ask him How Style dominates his life....

Col Mustard and I have this theory that light bends around our posts, making them invisible to 90% of the people on this forum. and 100% of the people who insist on having 'bbc' in their name.

Sorry didn't quite catch that I can just make out a predator style blur Laughing

Let's not be nasty to one another. Instead let's be happy we're not Alison Harper, reporting for N24 from Portsmouth:

These clues are getting too subtle for me now! What's Sri Lanka got to do with it?

Hmmmm! That would be tenuous!

George Aligiah and Matthew Amroliwalla are both Sri Lankan aren't they?

Sri Lanka used to be known as Serendip - a "joyous and unexpected suprise".

Best if we all meet at Rama's Bridge to discuss this

Hmm, lets think about this logically - Sri Lanka... its capital is Colombo... sounds like Columbo... Columbo wears a trenchcoat... trenchcoats worn by streakers and exhibitionists... oh Jesus! The newsreaders are going to shed their clothes to read the news and interview guests using the line "Just one more thing"! I don't think my stomach can handle a naked Peter Sissons smoking a cigar.
