    Six feet of string would do the job. Tie it in a loop, loop it round
    the cable, hang it over your shoulder. Sorted.

    I like the juxtaposition of "the risk of injury or death for the
    operator." and "This is not particularly satisfactory."

    I haven't even got a garden.

    My only criticism of the 'buy' page was "13 quid plus P&P? Are you
    having a fucking giraffe?"

    Surely it's just more of an understatment than a litote!

    As an aside, if Platy is considering selling to retailers, loads of them
    won't touch stuff that is sold direct by manufacturers as a matter of
    policy.

    Quite. To declare something not unsatisfactory would be a litote. This
    is just a contradiction.

    Website pendants? You mean like necklaces with "www.google.com" written
    on them?

  16. I wonder, could one adapt a cable sling to use as a guitar strap?

    I know, that bit's crap. The site was built using an "online shop
    builder" sites. I haven't got it to do everything I want it to, yet.

    and if someone looks after their lawn as well as you do then they won't
    need a lawn mower
