Okay – it’s been a few weeks since I felt my words warranted a sentence. This week was crying out for one. Enjoy!
Would my circumlocution be obvious if I was to tell you there was cock-a-hoop following the cloudburst that had put an end to the circumambient clamminess and washed away all signs of the Cobar shower that had dirtied the cobbler, making them look clottish.
Now please come back next week!
