    Going off on a tangent here but the highlighted word is one of only 2 in the English dictionary that has all the vowels in the correct order. Anybody know the other one?

    Never mind mate. Take comfort in the fantastic trade deal that the Tories have done to export cheese to Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. Taking back control is all that matters, and with your new blue passport you can now travel to 1 country without a visa instead of 27. Things are shaping up nicely. We've got experts working for us here <laugh>

    And now you'll know you were wrong about nothing rhyming with 'orange' <ok>

    "The only perfect rhyming word for orange is "sporange."
    A sporange is an old botanical term for "sporangium," the portion of a fern in which asexual spores are created."

    Pity Matty wasn't abstemious when it comes to chumocracy corruption contracts and extra marital affairs which break the social distancing rules he told us were "an instruction" not a request.
