When is soon?

 

 

Right after I've figured out how long this piece of string is.

Similar to the AB's in that respect then.

 

 

Sort of. At least the ABs get a good confidence rattler every few years like losing a quarter final or to Ireland for the first time, etc that keeps us a lot more humble than we used to be. In the long run, it's been good for us.  

 

TBH the Poms are showing quite a degree of maturity in defeat, it's kind of taken the fun out of it for me.

Changing the lower case 'h' into an upper case 'R' would be pretty simple - just a little more of the vertical. 
The flag might be a bit more of a challenge though.

This is all off topic but one last observation. The media in the UK raises people expectations far higher than they should be. Getting to the quarter finals would have been good, getting to the semis really good. Three games before the final they drew with Scotland who are hopeless and suddenly, a couple of games later, the press are lauding them as world beaters. Totally unrealistic.

Will PBT Couriers drop my next delivery from Bed Bath & Beyond over the 6ft Driveway gate onto the concrete driveway tomorrow like they did this morning?

 

(One order and BB&B split the shipments)

The answer so far is:

 

Although it was Picked Up yesterday afternoon in Christchurch for a Christchurch delivery, obviously I have not yet waited the required number of days for delivery yet?

Why is butter wrapped in such a way that I always get it all over my fingers when unwrapping it.

Yep - I use a knife to pry the paper away these days. (Now that I'm allowed to play with sharp objects carefully :-) )

It's to lubricate your fingers so it's easier to pick your nose when making scones.

I was full of anticipation when I got to the word 'so'. The rest of the sentence was ...disappointing.
