Nostalgic for yesterday! Not me I'm far too busy, it's not like in the old days but then the summers were longer and hotter.

...and on the moon there is only today, there is no yesterday and tomorrow never comes...Mr Bond

[ZK] Try again . . .
[Inkspot] Is there a question in there (or an answer?)
The answer has been mentioned so many times but not as an answer.

...but, if it is, I shall abrogate the Chair in favour of Tuj.

Boolbar]I was hoping Tuj was around to step in and take the chair, but he does not seem to have been around much yesterday.

[Kim] It is indeed. If you want to give it to Tuj then by all means do so.

* Audience awakens from a long snooze and breaks into huge applause shouting out Kim and Tuj's names and slapping Inkspot on the back before dashing for the toilets *

Well done Kim & Tuj et al. Last night, on returning from 36 hours of 'celebrating', I was surprised to find that this one hadn't been 'nailed'. Good choice Boobar :-)
re: the next one - I think whoever is 'around' now and for the next few hours should take the chair.

Where is Tuj based? If he's out of commission for any reason, then I'll supply the next one, but I propose to wait until 5.00pm UK time, to give Tuj a chance to play. Any objections to this?

Waaaah! Combination of monitor failure at work (not to mention the slowest-responding IT helpdesk in Europe and a son distinctly under the weather at home have prevented me from posting since this lunchtime. Sorry, one and all for the hiatus. OK, I see that Tuj is otherwise occupied, so I will take the chair once more. OK, since collaborations seem to be all the rage (cf. Britney, featuring Madonna), lets say: Abstract, featuring Vegetable.

like Boyzone featuring Robbie Williams?

E.g. the apple of one's eye, the tree of life, etc.

[Riff] Yes.
[ZK] No.
[Dazed5] No.
[Raak] Yes.
[Software] No.

[Chalky] Yes.
[Raak] You're a good man, Charlie Brown, but no.
[Boolbar] Yes.
[Lib] No.

Some people classify tomatoes as a fruit.

[Raak] Super, but no.
[Inkspot] No.
[Chalky] No.

oops - too recent.

[BtD] The book isn't.

only guessed this after discounting Last Mango in Paris

Another fine drop goal sails majestically between the uprights from the golden boot of Boolbar. The answer is, indeed, Steinbeck's searing indctment and merciless evocation of loss and displacement, The Grapes of Wrath.
Consolation prizes to Software and Dazed5 - there must be a new game in there somewhere (perhaps a replacement for the current Pants game, which, to my mind, had run its course some time ago).
The Chair passes to Boolbar.
