Hey, Zoe!

I hear you've been harassing these good folk, and trashing my rep! How are things? Still in Bedlam, or have they let you out?

Kim.

Hey Kim

I'm glad to hear life is treating you so well. Did you get up into space yet?

LOL

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Hey, can I buy a vowel on that center word? I have Wheel block where I can only think of the first word that came into my head for those letters, and it was "Seamus."

Edit: I posted before you edited, but I'm still curious!

No. The phrase is edited to be understandable only by kwati. And people who play Wheel of Fortune.

I have my final answer, and it's "Sirius." Thank you for playing.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Okay, if cricket has white blazers, too, then what are the striped blazers for?

The blazers aren't white, only the on-field uniform and then only during the traditional test-matches. Non test-match games are played in uniforms designed to represent the country's colours. The image you linked to is a shot from the World Cup, currently being played in various African countries.

Betsy ... hate to rub salt in the wound but the multi-coloured uniforms have been in use since the late 70s. However, it should also be noted that amateur cricket is still played in white uniforms. If you were to travel through England or Australia during summer, you'd see lots of cricket being played in "whites".

Oh and ... Canada Canada Canada. All out for 36!

Zoe ... just remember to use the "bloody colonials" form of spelling. colour = color when doing HTML.

They're for summer casual wear - striped blazer, straw boater, beige trousers and brown shoes. Or a cricket sweater (v necked cream with college coloured edges) casually draped across the shoulders.

Is that your usual getup as you take your morning constitutional on the village green, Jim?
