    Perhaps an odometer odourometer outside the exhibition entrance, with a trapdoor leading to something like a sheepdip. Anyone passing the odourometer (via the sheepdip or straightforwardly) will be allowed to purchase an entrance ticket. To obviate any trouble, perhaps Il Dottore could lend a couple of fully armed legionaries from the nearest legion as bouncers on the door. Dennis

    Bluebottle's anecdote reminds of the case a couple of years ago where the batsman got out when the wicket keeper was, shall we say, rather loquacious. The batsman then turned round and laid the keeper out cold. so batsman and keeper were both out. Dennis

    My only comment would be that some more bits and pieces are needed, such as pallets and other rubbish around to add to the general rubbish. That apart, I can almost smell the haggis !
