Hey how's it going? I was thinking I hadn't seen you posting in a while. So I tried searching for your name, but I had forgotten about Frankenstein's snowblower. Then I remembered the starry part. Then the 86 part. And then finally the 10 part. It's funny how my brain finally got it all together, one step at a time.
So anyway I finally found you and realized that you've been posting as usual, but I had just missed them all.

If it helps, dilly, the sun has crossed the yardarm in Europe.

Help, I don't know what that means.
It basically means that it's socially acceptable to be three sheets to the wind*
(*: I realise this may not help either, being from the same adage** drawer)
(**: probably not technically an adage)
@Badgardener @Starry1086
Indeed I had to look that one up too, but at least this time I found it. (For the first one, I looked up just "yardarm", which didn't help much. Should have looked for the full expression, not just the word)
@dillyd @Badgardener @Starry1086 I've never heard yardarm, but I really thought 'three sheets to the wind' was standard everywhere that Eng was spoken. I was clearly wrong
