OK, so I miss read the email. I read 'this idea brings to mind light-duty carbines as potential holders' I have a vision of a group of shock troops rushing in to hold my bobbins during my lace making. This really does rival my other miss reads. There was the one where I was walking past the screen in my reception and read two different ticker tape news bulletins and in my head I had 'Kerry Katona guilty of weapons of mass destruction'. Then there was the Euro Crisis where I read 'ECB warn of melt down of the Euro Zone'. My brain wondered what the English Cricket Board was upto. (Yes, I know it's the European Central Bank but I think my one is better.) Apparantly when you miss hear things they are called Mondegreens. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondegreen If you have a few minutes for some great laughs then have a look at the link below http://www.sfgate.com/columnists/carroll/mondegreens.shtml Mondegreens are where you sing things like 'while shepherds wash their socks' not because you think it's funny but because you think it's what is actually being said. I still think the things my brain comes up with are better than the original on occasion.
