[InkyScrolls]

I did not know that, no!

 

[DaleCooper]

I did not know that, no!

Not really, I just wanted to start an internet rumour.

Your turn...

 

[InkyScrolls]

Better that than too easy - where's the fun in that?

In Llanfairpwll, helicopters fly to spell this station's full name.

 

[neilmc]

Pwllheli surely?

 

[InkyScrolls]

Correct! An easy one for a change. All yours.

 

[neilmc]

I can only get easy ones. Try this then:

Maidstone Barracks?

 

[neilmc]

[Calthrop]

Not Dilton Marsh, I'm afraid.

 

[D6130]

Moreton-in-Marsh?

 

[Calthrop]

Not Moreton-in-M. either, I fear. (The "watery area" bit is not directly related to the station's actual name.) Perhaps I should re-word: In watery area: chap reminiscing about the time when, we hear, he ran an establishment dedicated to modish music and dancing.
