Only now that you mentioned it, I realised it's a baloon... a red baloon... if you know what I am talking about... that surely raises connotations... Fungoltch and Shcmurt?

(Speaking of them, I have seen recently some text which was obviously in the language in which Fungoltch and Shcmurt speak. It said "Marmor guglhupf". Just imagine it in a frame of the F&S story: "Marmor?" - "Guglhupf!"

- and for those who know what it means, yea, I know that too I have eaten it.)
