Weave not had to resort to that here as yet, though I'm sure the needle arise soon.

A dishevelled, lumpy piece of string walks into a pub and orders a beer.
It slumps over the beer and weeps.
Eventually the barmaid takes pity on it.
"Are you all right, love?" she asks.
And the reply comes, "I'm a frayed knot..."

Events later the same evening would eventually lead to the creation of the expression, "Go p!$$ up a rope".

I think I'm cottoning on to your warped sense of humour and please don't hit me as I felt that. Is that a cotton reel you are playing? It's a shame the cricket season's over or I could pick a bail of cotton wood. Brain hurts, going for a lie down.
