My dear Watson....

It was Earl Whodunnit
Twas him whosaidit
Twas me who cannie gettit

I tried to memorise what he says ....this is nearest I can get to it...the question remains....

....not SquiGGly? Which is an indistinct ....but nevertheless reasonably more meaningful than SquiBBly and it still rhymes?


Nephie now sitting on sofa trying to say "squibbly" and "squiggly" very fast
