I wonder where he'd go to get that, definitely not Wal-Mart or K-Mart, something very special is all I can say.

Also, for those who couldn't read the small print on the scroll it says: "Fish Man will soon be ready to take over the Barrow Downs."

Definentely, someplace that I've never gone shopping! Not that I've been shopping at K-Mart or Wal-Mart for a while...

I'm thinking the internet. I'd buy Downs domination off the internet.

Hook the Bill, next contest you hold, make it a P&A cover contest. The idea being that everyone takes one of your episodes and creates it anew with their own art. It could be loads of fun.

Sinsterly, LMP, the retired world dictator, looks like he's standing on Parbold Hill. Something you are not telling us, Mr Hookbill?

The Downer would like to assure all readers that we do not cave in to bribes, threats about our houses and or hills, or being pelted with stones. Now, if you'll excuse me, I will be heading to the most expensive private hospital in town for completely unrelated stone-pelting injuries.

Possibly. Has he gone missing recently? If so, please ask LMP about it. I'm sure he'll have interesting things to say.

I am surprised and aghast and really amused by the Downers' sudden foray into American politics.

I allude of course to the headline, "Man annoyed by late bus: 'It was supposed to be here by now.' "

Although why John McCain would speak to the Downer about his derailed Straight Talk Express I'm not sure. Perhaps that's why he went for anonemnity.

Whereas I don't have a Beef with it, just a Bacon and Tomato.

If these Europeans really want to convince us that Oxonmoot is real, then they should buy all of us North Americans plane tickets to England! And, as final proof, put us up an five star hotels.

As for The Sandwich and Lettuce Appreciation Society, where I can I acquire an application to join?
I quite agree with Lauri! I do believe that the European Downers should all buy use poor unfortunate North American Downers plane tickets, and provide accommodation for the "Oxonmoot" so that they can prove to us that it actually exists!

Even though I will be going to England next summer, I wont be going when Oxonmoot time is around. So there is just further reason to pay for us!
