I have to admit I’m not entirely sure I know why, but the following is at Gareth’s suggestion:
- A: Ale
- B: Bloke
- C: Cynics
- D: Developed
- E: Enthusiastic
- F: Forest
- G: Gardens
- H: Hills
- I: Islands
- J: Jovial and (is that against the rules) Just (people)
- K: Kingdom
- L: London Cabs (LTI)
- M: Mastery of the seas
- N: Nelson
- O: Occupiers (Sorry Iraq got into my thoughts then)
- P: Palace (Buckingham mostly)
- Q: Quaint
- R: Roman roads
- S:
Structures (I’m thinking of great buildings like the gherkin)
Thought of a better one: Stilton - T: Tolerant
- U: Umbrella (with a Bowler hat)
- V: Valour
- W: Wensleydale cheese
- X: I defer to Stuart for thinking of something
- Y: Yogurt
- Z: ZE - the world’s best post code - nothing like ‘The Shetland islands’ is it!
Reading back through the list this is probably a little revealing. Any budding (or professional) psychiatrists out there, only tell me privately if this means I’m mad please!

“X: I defer to Stuart for thinking of something”

Word Association
Gareth has decided (apparently randomly) to do an English word association exercise. The idea is to list the letters of the alphabet and then put the first English thing that comes into your head next to the letter.

though I am not a budding anything, I would say your answers reveal you are……..English. (except for the word cynic, if this is an English association prehaps I was English in another life.)
