Preparing for mrbouffant's lesson. My thigh-high lace-up stiletto boots are polished to perfection and the chocolate spread is at room temperature, so just a little bit of last-minute practice at balancing small animals on my head then I'll be ready.
Bouffy, I know your real name - it's Lohengrin. I've even dug a small lake where you can leave your swan during the lesson

Bouffy, I'm intruiged! Imagine you're the teacher and I'm the new student. How would I form an embouchure?
Oddball, if you can inflict some serious damage on Excel whilst you're at it, that'd be great!

Excel's much better!

If I posted answers to either of these questions my warn rating would increase to 100% and I'd be moderated for all eternity.

Morning all! I had a weird thought last night.
Is it gramatically correct for someone 'to be drunk' ????
Because drunk is past tense. Surely it'd have to be 'to have been drinking'
Reminds me of that wonderful line from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (which they left out of the film

):
'What's wrong with being drunk?'
'Ask a glass of water'.
And also reminds me of an ad for Ruby Port that I used to see on London Underground years ago which stated -
Our Ruby should get drunk more often.
