    I return from school pick up to find "postal".....

    I don't think I need to say anything.

    I find silence much more effective....

    90% of the clues in this thread would fail a strict test. I'm only giving the fans the cheap thrill they demand.

    I fessed to forcing a huge one into Hoogerland. Amateur hour, compared to Rich's frankly flagrant overloading of his vehicle in the Cadel Evans case. Had any new OEDs donated lately?

    Overloading the vehicle? I know Adele's not the slimmest, but that's just plain rude.

    Forgive my impudence. I humbly suggest that it's a big ask for one vehicle to convey Adele's amplifiers at the same time as being Cadel's van.

    Cooke, Rowe, Geraint, James, Barker. None of these are giving me a start. (I'm guessing not online may mean no 'e')

    I'm concerned that 'Welsh' may mean something different to me than you. If there's sheep involved I'm joining PBo.

    Perhaps an abbreviation for the non-online world? No sheep. Too risky. And one of your riders is initially correct.
