<HTML>Bowden Cable = A Webb Cloned, or, if you've seen his act down the Happy Squid, A Ebbed Clown.
All of which proves, of course, that the Thursday Next series is actually written by Francis Bacon. Or the Earl of Oxford. Or possibly Spafford Jeer or even Sad Jeff Roper.

It was really Cordelia Flakk behind Thursday's trial; Kafka Dice Roll
Aubrey Jambe not Beatriz' friend; Abjure my Bea
Mycroft destroys the Prose Portal; C'mon, text, fry!

<HTML>"Carla Beset"
sorry i'km useless at anagrams, what is this an anagram of?
I'm only good(ish) at Scrabble, not at any other word game... and playing Scrabble I can always use the excuse that I'm half thinking in Portuguese and distract the other player getting him unaware of my cunning tactics</HTML>

<HTML>Wouold those be the cunning tactics I use - pretend to be completely illiterate until I've got my opponent laughing; at which stage I realise we've run out of tiles and I've lost.
That's my excuse, anyway...</HTML>

<HTML>In truth I aim for 300+, which is probably quite respectable. I used to play it all the time in bed with my ex-fiancee over a bottle of wine, although people assumed this was just a euphemism.
All I really need is a Fforde-loving, Scrabble-playing, sporty, intellectual, scientist with a passing interest in the arts who doesn't find me terribly strange, or at least doesn't worry about it too loudly... If anybody matching this description happens to pass through...</HTML>
