Shake and shake the ketchup bottle
First none'll come
And then a lot'll.

This thread is growing rapidly enough that it's pushing itself off the bottom of the page, so I think it may be wise to create a sort of index and keep it up here for a while so people can find each other's posts.

Hi David
Well done for getting so many replies. I guess we writers loe talking/writing about that thing we do.
And we also at last have a language connection I never realised the Ketchup Bottle thang was Odgen Nash. That saying was a family in-joke when I was growing up in the North of England. I thought it was peculiar to us! Just go to show!
