What are you trying to tell me Beth

That so far I have read through the A's B's and C's of the "Australian Dictionary" and I am VERY confused!!! I'm also still not sure how a Tin Lid is a child. Where did that phrase come from???

Good question! I went through the whole alphabet and tried to come up with the answer. At least I know I will be eligible for the next one!! :Flash:

Saw it during a spelling bee years ago. Totally stumped the kid.

Wow, that is a low blow in a spelling bee. How many other letters have 'spellings'?

The kid asked for a definition, like they almost always do, and the judge said "The 8th letter of the alphabet is the letter "aitch." Or something similar. The kid just went blank, it was funny/awkward since I think it was the National Spelling Bee.

Oh, he didn't get it right either. Who the hell new a letter needed an entire word to spell itself???
