Make up a spoonerism!

(A spoonerism is a spoken phrase which has been garbled by swapping sounds between two of the words, by accident or as a joke. Usually it's the beginnings of words that are changed, but not always. It was named after the Reverend W.A. Spooner, who was notorious for saying things like "Is it kisstomary to cuss the bride?" and "The Lord is a shoving leopard.")

Croonerism spawner.

Classic British Friday takeaway: chish and fips with pushy me's, washed down with a nice bold cottle of bandylion and durrdock.

I'm trying to remember A.A. Milne characters. There's Pinny-the-Woo, Tiglet and Pigger. Igor, Kanya, Raoul and Ooh. And Wristopher Chrobin, of course.

Never trust this GPS nonsense - there's nothing like a meet strap for getting around.
