He's just wonderful!
I love him.

I wasn't cognisant of the OP's name , until it was mentioned .....

once heard...can't be unheard !!

 

Hide glue and shellac, hide glue is revisable and so is natural shellac.

 

hide glue...on a donkey.........makes sense !!

 

A grisly prospect...what it is.

 

Aaaauuuuntie! You're GLUE!
