All the wind is being used by the Assembly members. As a Carmarthenshire person, I should know.

You're in Carmarthenshire? Then we are neighbours - I'm in Pembs. A few years back we were even in the same county!

From Carmarthenshire, now in Nottingham. Still visit regularly though!

Still feeling the hiraeth then!

Honestly, we're not keeping him here against his will.

So when we've worked out how to transport them, we now know where to take them.

I've been off for some time but decided to get back for the astounding news:
Researchers aim to resurrect mammoth in five years

Although, on second inspection, they promised the same in 2005.

Possibly unwise to put your trust in scientists who can't tell the difference between a mammoth and a Groundhog.

Possibly unwise to try to clone something big enough to eat you...

Why don't they work on the dodo bird? That just seems so much more safe, and more likely to win the approval of the citizens. I mean, there is just the cute factor in dodos that mammoths will never have a chance of acquiring...

And how would these mammoths support themselves? Are they going to hire out as land-clearing specialists, or what?

*plock*?

Mammoths, dodos... and what else?

They could resurrect vaudeville entertainers as a breed... alarming...

You've seen Britain's Got Talent then?

"I say, I say, I say ... "

I'm right browned off, Iyam...

So, have we determined how to transport a mammoth? And, if so, where do we transport it to?

I know my mammoth is very happy where it is, although the garden is much less happy about it.

Provided we want to have the mammoth transported to the jungle, perhaps we can sing "Nellie the Elephant" to it and se if it gets inspired enough to pack its trunk and trundle off on its own accord, and maybe even with a trumpety-trump?

I believe that there is a surplus of mammoths in Queensland.

The paper had a headline about the mammoth floods they have been having up there, and the mention of mammoths farts made me wonder if these Queensland mammoths have bladder trouble (can't think of the long word).

Then came the Cyclone Yasi with winds of mammoth proportions, so I guess they had been at the green bananas again.

Next there will be mammoth infestations of snakes, cane toads, moths, inflation, and politicians.

With what would you treat a mammoth with politician infestation?

No treatment needed. Just wait behind the mammoth with the bucket and shovel.

This may be slightly off-topic, but when looking outside the train window this morning on a ride in central Spain, I thought I saw a mammoth some distance away. I was so flabbergasted that by the time I was groping for my camera the view was already gone.

Subsequent research in the internet revealed that it was not a mammoth, but just an elephas antiquus or palaeoloxodon, and nothing more.

It appears to be a life-sized statue on the site of an excavation in Soria province, Spain. Google streetview has captured it from somewhat closer by than from the train, so here's an idea of what I saw this morning: streetview
