Ach, you know me ... always a little backward. Mohs of course.

I had to google Mohs.

Now that I am in the know I feel I can safely say that a tortoise is more mohorofic than a poncey half bald half poodle. However if they were both on a treadmill and the treadmill stopped would Newton's law apply in the horizontal plane given that the poncey poodle is now as shiny as a tortoise.

Back on the gin, I see.

AX started it, the treadmill

He usually does. I suggest you google Hogarth. Tut.

Edit: Actually that was uncalled for. I've just opened a bottle of a Belgian beer named Gulden Draak. Very tasty, but it claims to be 10.5% alcohol by volume. I may go to bed soon.

Edit again: Gulden Draak seems to mean Golden Dragon. I just thought you'd all like to know.

As you well know, that "unsympathetic shaving" is, in fact, the result of an extended session at a premium groomers. A hurtling Charlie would now brush, nay, caress, a passenger with a freshly poofed, conditioned and pre-conditioned, tail. Besides, he has a harness, a device intended to discourage bounding out of the car at traffic lights and incidentally a safety feature for both dog and fellow travellers.

I'm familiar with the works of Hogarth and can't recall any images of treadmills, with or without airplanes, dogs, tortoises etc. There may have been a dragon or two.

Glad to hear the comment was uncalled for. I can be bonkers without the aid of gin.
