    Thanks, Frank, altough even I have to say that this one was not that difficult. Good that Martin Edwards did not call his book "The tungsten labyrinth".

    hee hee!
    If he had called it "The Kingston upon Thames" labyrinth, (KOT being where I live), I could have called my post
    Kingston upon Thames bad traffic.
    Unfortunately, nobody would then have read the post because the titles would be self-evident.

  4. I dunno, if I were giving awards for slugging great heads, this one would rank very close to the top, Maxine. It's inspired (and thus, by extension, inspiring).

    I can see, though, why anything else (despite how beautiful your location may be) might be perceived as rather, well, pedestrian :). (Who could resist? Not moi!)

    Conversely, speaking of headline writing, The Canadian Press hit a new low when it slugged a story about the death of a professor in New Brunswick thusly:

    "RCMP Closes Book on Dead Professor." (Last week!)
