I tried to fix the monks in time, hence the ink-horn and the twine with stone to fix the vellum in place. This was done so hilarity would ensue by using the word Tipp-Ex out of chronological order. Or something.

By the way: Are you aware that an old tutor of mine was Michael Williams from "Punch"? Great bloke.
Wow! No I wasn't aware of that. I have always admired his work. My favourite depicts the Duke of Clarence being dragged towards a vat of Malmsey. He struggles in horror saying, "No! Not the '47!"

Gollocks!
