No, hang on. How is this Word Association? I said Watt and ApO said Morning All and White Stiletto starts talking about the weather.

It was James Watt and Alessandro Volta talking. It was their word association.

Oh. Okay.

Isobars.

Who was Iso, by the way? Was he an 18th Century physicist as well?

Cleaning today, with a spot of patio furniture finishing when the paint turns up and providing it's not been raining!!

My turn for the word association,
Mayhem.

Morning fatboy.

Get a brew and a banjo down you by all means but what we need to know is have you caught anything yet?

(Fishing-wise preferably, though embarrassing rashes or ailments would be considered. Depends what you've picked up)

Morning all, full and very out. Rained overnight and the bin lorry has just been.

Fatboy, I only have one thing to say to you.

No. NaMBiT

It's a word associated with biocides and corrosion inhibitors in antifreeze solutions.

Chiefy Black* was most insistent that we apprentices learned how to say the word by rote.
I have no idea why, I never once had occasion to use this priceless bit of information.
Perhaps he was just trying to put us in awe of his wealth of knowledge.
All I know is he walked out of the classroom gagging one time and refused to come back until we stopped doing Newcastle Brown farts.

* I'm not sure if it is permissable to use that word in modern WOKE society, but that was Chief Technician Blackwell's nickname, and that's what we all affectionately called him.
He was one of our favourite instructors. It's thanks to him that I can service a Bristol Pegasus blindfolded and keep the Sunderland ready to go at any moment after I've finished my leisurely breakfast. angel

Dark Web?

Ha!

Following exhaustive investigations by MI5, Trivial Towers, its occupants and activities were officially classified as ABF* but not a cause for immediate concern.

Well, I never. This explains everything.

Well, it explains the groupies. Thank goodness for that. Mrs C was getting a bit irritable about all the nubile young women hanging around lusting after me. This will put her mind at rest.
