My parents gave me a well done card with a cryptic message...

Sell Sue Travel Heaters,
Not Actual Groins,
Get Lovely Cleaner
(Rain, Mud, uh!)
Mock Flood Rug


A level results three As
Congratulations
Trevelyan College
(Durham Uni!)
Good Luck From



Apparently heaters is an anagram of "three As"
and I think get rain, mud, uh might be "in durham"

Help!

I think 'Sell Sue Travel Heaters = A level results three As
'Not Actual Groins' = congratulations

Anagrams can be fun:

Orchestra = Carthorse (most appropriate as both have a tendency to go in their own direction at their own pace unless attended by a man with a stick!)

If you're going to get political:

Loonies far up the Thames = The houses of Parliament

Or, a little dated now:

Virginia Bottomley = I'm an evil Tory Bigot
Michael Heseltine = Elect him, he's alien

But there's no 'T' in 'lovely cleaner' ... how can it be Trevelyan college? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (Am I being stupid? Please tell me if I am!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) )

EDIT: Yes, I am being an idiot. I didn't see the word 'get' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) *hides*
