Once I was an MGB,
But now I do not know,
Some silly, tasteless modifier
Has had a nasty go
At making me look prettier,
At making my lines flow
But truth be told
Dear readers,
He's struck a ghastly blow!

1970 MGB Special sold (and probably modified) by Tim Burthamshire from Palo Alto, California.

Thanks a lot ! You must be relieved too Carnut ;D

I've spent some very nice 6 months over here, solving obscure and not so obscure puzzles. Now I can go back to a normal life, as it will require less time to solve the much, much rarer puzzles that will come to my level. But I'll still be there posting puzzles for sure !
