... so we can end now!
What was wrong with mine? I thought it was rather appropriate :)
Yes, it was, but I wanted to share my one, especially as as it is funny, as lemurs can't get asthma!

(that was knaughty !)
First to 100000 in the 2015+ Tumbleweed contest. Winner of a few rounds of a diverse range of quizzes/games. Some decent times in alternative challenges as a fiftysomething who merely walks briskly. Briefly led All The Actons.

Mistakes are never obvious, regrettably. Howlers often undermine serious expression.
