Reminds me of a story I think I heard on the wireless about an advertisment for a "Guaranteed 100% effective cure for garden slugs. Only ?10"

Intrigued, the story teller sent off for it and by return received a parcel containing two blocks of wood and a photocopied instruction sheet which began 'place the slug on the lower block..."
I mostly despair

I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

As if a slug would be able to bowl, you're just being silly now.
