Just as it says on the tin. What happens in the game may be debated in the game: perhaps it'll be a conversation, perhaps a word-limited reprise of various games we play, or whatever.

Believe me Rosie, I do it anywhere but here
I should announce an Official Change of Subject
Only after you apologise for your extra word.
And for the indiscriminating nature of your libido.
Sorry. And I'll be more picky next time.
It won't get better if you pick it.
Isn't that what trade unnionists are always told?
Arthur Scargill would want some Flying Pickets instead.
Surely the Flying Pickets were a pop group.
Yes they were and don't call me "Surely".
Isn't that 'Don't call me Shirley', surely, moroni?
Should be Shirley but said Surely by mishtake.
I've never heard of the flying Shirleys, anyway.
Their jokes would probably go over your head
That depends upon how tall your body is.
My body? Starts at neck, finishes at legs.
Here is today's eight-word offering for your perusal.
I never really wanted to be an engine-driver.
Does that mean what you lack is "inginuity"?
I shall treat that remark with complete ignoral. © George Brown, ca. 1968.
I have fourteen daddy longlegs in my house today
One of them gave you an extra word.
Americans use "daddy longlegs" for a particular arachnid.
British daddy longlegs are not arachnids at all.
Quite so, but many think that they are.
I found an enormous caterpillar on my doorstep.
It may be an Elephant Hawk Moth Catapillar.
Hello, Bob the dog. Where have you been?
Gosh, October already. Where has this year gone?
Shooting into the past would be my guess.
There's three months to go. Anything could happen.
Uses enormous CaterpillarTM to dig up neighbour's garden
Can a CaterpillarTM fell my neighbour's bloody trees?
I'm conserving trees now, I can't allow that.
pen is the Tree Czar. Be very afraid.
Large Caterpillar can produce a very large Butterfly.
Caterpillars in the stomach must be very unnerving.
One must watch out for the butterfly effect.
Especially as it is the most dreadful tease.
Nights, we're not quite sure what you mean.
Maybe it's above our heads, like most butterflies.
Never mind, I don't think I know either.
It's fun writing about things you don't know.
Softers, you could go far in public relations.
Or be successful writing for the Daily Mail.
Or teaching at a university in France, even.
That really is a most disturbing revelation, nights.
Why thank you, Rosie. I made it myself.
Gosh! Could you make me one as well?
I'll have a go. I eat cheesy peas.
I've done it all my life. No, wait...
That is funny, I usually eat Peasy Cheese.
I prefer peas or cheese, not a melange.
Yes, some things don't blend. Marmalade and kippers.
I think they do, actually. Try high speed.
Marmalade And Kippers were a Dutch musical twosome.
Oh yes. They were banned, weren't they? Hmm?
I like a little marmalade with breakfast sausages.
Maple syrup goes well with bacon at breakfast.
I'm rather partial to Cheddar cheese and jam.
I eat my organic frozen peas with honey.
I dislike maple syrup. Golden or treacle please.
[Raak] Agreed - and also with sausages and pancakes.
Cereal-wise, lemonade isn't a good subsitute for milk.
Lemonade on Rice Krispies would go crazy wild!
Brings new meaning to snap, crackle and pop!
I'll have to try that one out now
Do let us know how you get on.
Frosties can be sent through the postal system.
