Captain Kewwhatdaflip had been watching a new quiz thingy which had a load of wrong but plausible answers, and one of those wrong but plausible answers was that Thursday was the day of the week, the letters of which could be rearranged to make the longest single word....or something which made better sense than I've just written.
The actual truth was that Monday was the day of the week, the letters of which could be rearranged to make the longest single word, that being 'dynamo', in case you're interested.
All well and good.
Captain Cowibblywobbly's sleepy-sleeps procedure involves putting on bubblegum TV, because dark, quiet rooms promote the consideration of cold, stark realities not conducive to the advent of sleepy-peepeys at all....not at all.
This night's such bubblegum TV was "8 out of 10 cats does Countdown". It's a bit of fun. At each commercial break, we're invited to solve a 'tea-time teaser'; an anagram and a clue. One of these had been "A shy turd", and the clue was "It happens but once a week."
"What a coincidence!", thought Captain Coincidence, and slid off to the land of Nod, safe in the knowledge that the girl from the Addams family was called Wednesday, not Thursday.
