    What a prude
    I believe this episode was cut-out of the published book and may possibly still be read in the the original posts.
    P'haps A_S is going to bring out the "new unexpurgated edition" and get us to stump up another twenty-five nicker for wagtails we've already read!
    Don't be fooled by pix of fallen-down masonry - there's a sapper's palace/swamp being built in the allgrave on the back of stumpy's antics.
    A glossary for the uninitiated and septic readers may be useful and perhaps a map for younger readers who've never patrolled bog-side.
    Cheers

    Fixed that for you sir. I'm sure you don't drive yourself, but have a chauffeuse in a uniform and peaked cap to do that mundane duty.
    And this you can see is the bolt. The purpose of this
    Is to open the breech, as you see. We can slide it
    Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
    Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
    The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
    They call it easing the Spring.
    They call it easing the Spring: it is perfectly easy
    If you have any strength in your thumb: like the bolt,
    And the breech, and the cocking-piece, and the point of balance,
    Which in our case we have not got; and the almond-blossom
    Silent in all of the gardens and the bees going backwards and forwards,
    For today we have naming of parts.

    It's a fun place, you never know who you'll meet.

    Apparently some moderators take themselves very, very seriously, and cannot abide posts such as:
    "If however you offer to moderate you may be a sanctimonious, unfunny pissflap to your heart's content."

    Some comments are allegedly "very very nasty and uncalled for."
