mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

[Rosie] Big enough to cover a beermat? NO - at least not in my experience or knowledge

Quendalon

Sucrology?

Kind of a shot in the dark. But if it's a game-winner, that'd be pretty sweet.

Chalky

Do people [who don't indulge themselves] regard this hobby in a .... sort of, derogatory way?

I can't help thinking about your reply to my question "Is this a form of entertainment" and you said NO and the audience actually chuckled.

Phil

[Chalky] A disrespected hobby? NO - The couple of people who chuckled were (like me) amused by the thought of someone exhibiting their collection for entertainment purposes. Probably not very helpful chuckles, but chuckles nonetheless.
[Quendalon] Sucrology? YES - Congratulations, it is the collecting of sugar sachets and sugar cube wrappings. The sweet smell of success is yours. The difference between the collected items (mostly not paper) and the accumulated items (mostly paper) is that sucrologists remove the sugar post-collection and pre-accumulation. The UK Sucrologists Club has around 320 members, publishes a quarterly newsletter called "Sweet Thoughts", and offers a link to (amongst others) the Berlin Museum of Sugar.

Rosie

(Phil) A bit anorakky?? Positively pathetic, certifiable etc etc. I dunno.

Quendalon

Well, that was interesting! Let's move on to the next item:
Animal and/or Vegetable, with Abstract connections

Tuj

Begins with P?
