Earth Hour
« on: March 29, 2008, 01:56:32 PM »
Tonight between 8:00 and 9:00 PM you are supposed to switch your lights off for Earth Hour.

Do you plan to participate? If so, what will you be doing in the dark?

Hmm. That's an interesting idea. I'm usually getting myself groomed before taking Lucy out for our weekly tour of Rothesay's bars. Getting dressed and groomed in the dark could be difficult...

Hopefully I won't be getting any sarcastic remarks from her. Last week she insisted that "three drinks and a bag of scratchings didn't make me a Sugar-Daddy".

I wasn't aware of this "Earth Hour" I shall turn off the lights on my heli-pad and cut the power to the servants' quarters.

Don't you mean Greenwich Mean Time?
After all, there is more than England in the United Kingdom.

England is not in United Kingdom. But the word "dung" is.

In fact, (and I think this is a coded message for Roger from ancient times), "United Kingdom" is an anagram for "Omit Inked Dung".
