Come on ... actually believing a busy roundabout is a rabbit land utopia is probably one of stupidest things I've heard. Do you really believe rabbits/Foxes don't cross roads? What happens if a fox decides to set up camp on the roundabout too?

You really are my husband! He has to smoke secretly and won't play backgammon at home any more because I always win!
He only has one pair of pointed toed shoes, though. I cut the toes off the other five in a temper tantrum the other week when he was rude about my hairstyle and revealing my bosoms in public. I don't think he's found them yet, though. I also cut out the tickets of his kecks and re-sewed them into the fronts so he'd continuously put them on the wrong way round.

Ms. pmh just refuses full stop to play backgammon, she thinks it looks dull.

You are an evil genius.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

My house is not far from the roundabout near Ennerdale/Sutton Rd and I often see rabbits on that island early in the moring, however I often see foxes crossing the roads as well.
My point was and still is that their IS a coloy of rabbits on the Leads road roundabout and at least one of them is ginger. I will admit that some rabbits may well be told to 'do one' by their own kind but my origional point is still true.

Was watching a program about ancient scribes the other night. It was illustrating what a difference the first printing presses made as it brought texts and learning to so many more people back in the time of the War of the Roses.
The complete typeface of letters was called a "font" or "fount" (slightly earlier than font). As these machines first brought knowledge to thousands who previously had no access to the written word I wonder whether this is actually the source of the saying "The font/fount of all knowledge"?
