It seems I'm in the lead again, this morning.

*releases a torrent of 4h pencils from above*

It was a hard job, but someone had to challenge his lead

[Ursa major]

At this rate, the pencil makers of Keswick will be making more of a mint than the folk of Kendal are from their cakes.

Sadly, I cleaned their museum out of 4h's; Harriet, Harry, Hilda and Howie. No staff, no opening, no money.

[Ursa major]

Der' went as well, I believe.

[Timba]

Some humor has a lead like quality to it, I've noticed.

[springs]

I thought you might have a lie in, Timba. Why not draw the curtains?

The bear's plumbing the depths today

[Ursa major]

Can you spare a copper or two for a big old bear? It is Christmas, you know.


(And giant towers don't come cheap.)

[springs]

Go ask your bailiffs.

[Ursa major]

And there was I holding them back because of the season.

But you're right. This place nees an economic recovery, and the Bailiffs are just what's needed to get that recovery started....

[springs]

There's a nice big tower; scrap metal's making excellent sell on values.

[Ursa major]

Then it's a shame that the tower is made of "stone". And there's no plumbing (which is, after all, for the depths). Even now, half-finished, the tower's the tallest thing around, so there'd be no noticeable water pressure at the top.

Geez, I post at 4:24 am and you think I am having a lie in. You keep a weird schedule my dear.

Rain water collection system is what you need, Ursa. Sustainable and protects your water supply from the besieging hordes.

[Ursa major]

The tower doesn't need a water supply. As for hordes, they're all on holiday now.
