Might one enquire of the Buddha whether the Finnish find favour, but not a Moomin?

master i was wondering if enlightment leaves you in a daze.
and makes you refrain from wearing ahat
so with respect as due
tell if my guess is true.

Student SparkOut: The Finnish do not find favour, but a Moomin does.
Student clvrlad: Enlightenment does indeed leave the buddha in a daze, and this makes him refrain from wearing a hat.
Student fernando: The buddha does not like Stilton or Cheddar. He thinks that cheese is vile.

I'm not sure whether to give you a BIG HINT or a little hint, but I'm not sure it will make much difference. ;)

May I humbly enquire as to whether the Buddha prefers macaroni to spaghetti?

I propose that the Buddha favour words where the third letter is of identical shape in both capitals and lower case.
Thus the Buddha would accept mackerel as 'c' is the same shape as 'C' but reject herring as 'r' is a different shape to 'R'.

Humbly I adopt the position of master.

Now hearken to the wisdom of the Buddha.
It is pleasant up in the mountains, but the Buddha has a liking for sea air. As such he is contemplating a visit to the coast.
He is very impressed by the heritage of Brighton, but considers that Blackpool is decidedly tacky. He may visit Bournemouth, but would not go along to Poole. He favours Skegness over Filey, and would go to Newquay but avoid Padstow.

The buddha has made his prefernce clear about towns, but may I ask about what he thinks of countries. Can I suggest that the buddha likes France but not Portugal?

Would the Buddha care to visit Swansea in preference to Dundee?

Novice kingsley, the Buddha considers both France and Portugal to be worthy countries, unlike Italy.
Novice Bunnylump, the Buddha would as willingly visit Dundee as visit Swansea, but he would avoid Leeds.

What, pray, has Gill216 done to offend the Buddha? :lol:
