Email just sent (below) has me thinking:
Hi all - Due to popular request, I've changed the settings on the Otter blog so anyone can comment without all the faff of registering and logging in. If you're not logged in, you're anonymous, so you might want to adopt a 'handle' as per Smokey and the Bandit circa 1977. "Breaker breaker Mother Love, if you got y'all ears on Smokey's knockin at yer back door. You gotta put that hammer down, good buddy. It's the beer bust or a bear cage, come on."
I was only kidding then, but now I'm serious. The 'special rule' for this AGM (Sunday 13 Dec, 1800 kick off) is that all Otters must adopt a Smokey and the Bandit-style, shit-kickin', sum-bitchin' CB radio handle. Handles must be used from the first pub onwards. Fines for violations.
And just to remind you what an outstanding and seminal movie Smokey and the Bandit was, here's the original theatrical trailer, live and direct from You Tube (including history's dodgiest strapline: "It's not where you're going that counts, but who's in back of you.")
