31.

And just for Florence, I persuaded Adrian to take Reality to his drinking establishment and persuade her to make it prime. After a large number of ZCDs and ZCRs, she agreed. She managed this by moving the number nine from between five and six to after eight (apparently Reality likes chocolate). This does appear to have had some serious problems for accountants, which made Reality very happy (it seems Reality has had some unpleasant encounters with accountants, where she came off second best). There may also now be some problems with computers, but Reality's response was, near enough, and rendered suitable for a family forum, "So Redmond gets more complaints. What do I care?". I realise many of you will not remember this move, but that was because of the ZCR or Zany Carter Reflexive. These are a rather unusual creation in which it is everyone that is not drinking a ZCR at that time that suffers, or enjoys, the after effects. Interestingly, Adrian has banned Pshrynk from having ZCRs...

personally, i'm all in favour of making life hard on accountants and the guys in redmond. but the real question is, where can i get some of those zcr's ?

BTW, I don't suppose you could enlighten us as to why Adrian has banned you from ZCRs?

I did ask and all he did was mutter something about a wimple, an intimate itch, the President of France, Atlantis and something that sounded like "a herd of groostigs". My attempt to find out more with an "oh" that tried to convey a "do tell more" resulted in one of Adrian's stares. The doctors tell me I should recover in a couple of months.

yeah i'd like to know too. when i asked him, he muttered something incomprehensible and looked embarassed. which, given it's rarity, i found deeply intriguing.

lazyscot, i keep telling you to put on the eclipse glasses *before* you set yourself up for one of those stares.
