He saw the cellar. And he shouldn't've *pause to analyse preponderance of apostrophes* because he wasn't meant to. :)

His father sitting at a table

His father sitting at a table with a stopwatch. Dad writes down the time when the boy enters. He says : "Finally ... I've been down here for weeks!" and then resumes writing a book with the title "The Attraction Of Prohibition". It's tough growing up in a house where Dad is a psychiatrist.

OR

His mother sitting at a table with a stopwatch. She writes down the time when the boy enters. She says : "Thought I was down the street, eh?" and then resumes writing a book with the title "The Attraction Of Prohibition". It's tough growing up in a house where Mum is a psychiatrist.

OR

Both parents sitting at a table with a stopwatch. Dad writes down the time when the boy enters and Mum resumes writing a book with the title "How To Grow a Psychopath". It's tough growing up in a house where both parents are psychiatrists.

Cheers, Mike.

Because he was so naughty,

Because he was so naughty, his mother kept him in the cellar. So when he opened the cellar door he saw the hallway and the front door to freedom.

Waiting for Godot & salvation :-)

Ohhh. Well... if you'd SAID he grew up to be a BT engineer I might have got it...

you can jiggle your own eyes about whenever you wish though :)

Best drink I ever had was a

Best drink I ever had was a triple shot called a 'B-52'. I had this in Vietnam at a nice beach bar near Hoi An, looking out into a magnificent rowdy sea storm. So the top layer of the drink - some clear flammable liquid - was set on fire briefly before I drank it. It was listed on the cocktail menu as a Flaming B-52. A nice local touch there. Though I still have to refer to my wife for information as regards any events for the remainder of that day. She tells me that was the only drink I'd had that day .... so don't do that at home folks. As my Uncle Benny The Inmate used to say : Be sure to always go out of jurisdiction laddie. :-)

Aside : So a 'BT engineer' is some species of troll or orc is it ? You know, evil incarnate .... born underground ... later emerges into the sunlight ... to wreak havoc upon kind & innocent surface dwellers ... eternal plague of the righteous etc ?

Cheers, Mike.

By Annie's reckoning, your description is polite. Her adventures with them are epic at Seti. (She's not the only one, either. And Scott's not too fond of the AT&T subspecies right now.)

You might very well think that, but I couldn't possibly comment!

Wikipedia - BT Engineer

A rapidly declining species once indigenous to the British Isles, and rapidly dying out particularly in parts of London. Zoologists disagree as to the cause, but some rumours abound of the few survivors found staggering the streets with wild eyes and 3 foot beards, asking what year it is.
