Monday, 5 May 2014, Pages 141 - 143

We stopped midway in a sentence / paragraph /question: "... hang of the Hoel of it..." (143. 15)

What we read:

We read questions (& answers) 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Question 5 was about Pore ole Joe, who was a man, who did odd jobs around the house. The question felt like an ad for a job (What slags of a loughladdd would retten sumtyflesks,.... mell vitious grit, .... / Which sort of a lad/guy would serve up / make ready dirty flasks, .... milk vicious goats.... ) would  stating its requirements too. Question 6 on the other hand was about a kitchen help, who imitates her employer, and who seems to be in a bad mood (... for Tomorrha's big pickneck I hope it'll pour.... And who eight the last of the goose-bellies..... / I hope it will pour for tomorrow's big pick nick ... and who ate the last of the gooseberries... )

And so on and so forth. For fun (and appreciation of the work), do read the following loudly:
 "... And whowasit youwasit propped the pot in the yard and whatinthe nameofsen lukeareyou rubbinthe sideofthe flureofthe lobbywith." (141. 22)

Just don't ask who is asking the questions, and to whom they are addressed!
