Gosh, I'm really sorry I missed out on chatting with Jack! I would have very much enjoyed that. Was Ennis there too, last night?  :D

Sometimes, when it's late, and I've had a rough day at the coalface, I doze off at the keyboard. Go into such a sound sleep. Dreaming and all. Sitting bolt upright. Wake up an hour later and fall into bed.  :-\   :)

Kerry! That's bad for you! Cory falls asleep all the time while he's sitting upright, and he wakes up with a terrible neck ache! If you start to feel sleepy, you should go to bed sweetie!! You should get a good night sleep and then log onto BetterMost after you get up!! Okay??  :)

That's very good, sage advice, David. I must try to get into the habit of going to bed earlier. I love my bed and am a very sound sleeper (even when I've already been asleep for a couple of hours, bolt upright, in front of the PC haha!). Maybe I'll make "Retire Earlier" my New Year's resolution for 2008!   ;)  :D

And the answer is . . . . . .

"I'm very busy."   :D

Before posting the result, I thought I'd better google "drinking lizard," just to make doubly sure of my facts. I was quite surprised to find that some sites translate this saying as meaning, "I'm in a hurry." I suspect these sites may be non-Oz and are being misled by "flat out," which certainly does mean "in a hurry" or "moving quickly." However, in Australia, when the words "flat out" are used in conjunction with any reference to imbibing reptiles, no matter how remote, it only ever means one thing - "I'm very busy." Certainly, that's what it means in my office!  For example, imagine I'm up to pussy's bow in overdue paper work and a colleague drops by my desk for a chat. It would be entirely appropriate for me to say, "I'm flat out like a lizard drinking right now, mate. I'll catch ya later!"

Congratulations to everyone who got it right and thank you to everyone for participating.  :D

I'm having trouble imagining you up to your pussy's bow in anything, actually. :)
