I thought the relative silence was quite pertinent really.

You could hardly hear a penny drop?

#184 Post by **Scurra** » Fri Oct 22, 2021 11:52 pm

That implies the opposite, I think?

Shouldn't it be
'You could have heard a pin drop'?

Silly me! Sorry about that. I did a search for "camel" but, of course, it didn't come up and I forgot I had already done that one!

Sorry, assumed SparkOut was replying to the comment about having had this one before or not? I'm just no good at deciphering cryptic comments.

Think I will dip out of this one!

Well, I only noticed the extra comment on SparkOut's post after you had also answered! Though this time it might have passed the 'search' test

Oh, see what you mean. I struggle to read the standard font on here, so couldn't see anything was written - that will always pass me by, I'm afraid.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to perturb. I know that was hard to read for anyone, let alone with eyesight challenges like Lumpybum.
