Seems conclusive to me.
Only one minor doubt.

Available for sale are everything from small wooden shards alleged to be fragments of the "One True Beagle"
I've met the one true Beagle and he didn't have a peg leg so I suspect these fragments are a hoax set up by unscrupulous market traders.
Even more shocking (soemone call Comrade Goatavara)

To paraphrase Chaucer:
QuoteBut sirs, one word I have forgotten to say. Here in my bag I have relics and indulgences, as fair as any man's in Britain, which were given to me by Darwin's own hand.
Anyone see The Onion Movie yet?

I wore a long dress to hide it. The next time we do the Brief Encounter bit it's your turn to be Celia Johnson.
I fear expect for movie nerds and Englishmen nobody will get that :mrgreen:
Celia Johnson did not wear a long dress ;D
She would have done if she had legs like mine.
A mystery. I just searched the whole internet for Celia Johnson's legs. I don't think she had any; all the pics are waist up, except for one where just a bit of calf can be seen if you squint.
The only station platform still I could find she actually only seems to have one leg. It's a sort of blurred spindle. Must be the way she walks.
Sadly, I don't know who you are talking about, but someone of that name appears to have leg-like appendages -- [at least from below kneecap to above ankle] -- here (http://lean.bfi.org.uk/materials/fullsize/bfi-00m-lvl.jpg).
She was an English actress who in Brief Encounter played a middle-class suburban housewife who almost had an extra-marital affair, but settled for cups of tea in a station waiting room instead.
"This can't last. This misery can't last. I must remember that and try to control myself. Nothing lasts really. Neither happiness nor despair. Not even life lasts very long. There'll come a time in the future when I shan't mind about this anymore. But I can look back and say quite peacefully and cheerfully how silly I was. "
Apparently the tea wasn't very good.
edit:
I believe the Hollywood remake version may have been retitled "Debbie does Dallas" :o
Why must people be so decent on screen ;)
We must belong to different video libraries :)
Prawn actors are quite decent and rarely kill each other on screen... :mrgreen:

That's the spirit chaps...care for a crumpet with your tea?
Can't remember any weapon or hand to hand combat in Brief Encounter.
The prawn version would probably be named Briefs Encounter.

Poor lady. I hadn't realised she KNEW how bad her legs were ;)
