Body of work contest- a clarification

Blog Posted:9/11/2016 12:38:00 AM

Hi folks,

After a recent communication with me, can I just point out that the words I stated as being not allowed in your verse also include any slang or euphemism for one of those parts, i.e- 'butt', 'booby', 'smackers', 'peepers', etc.

Just thought I'd clear that up.

Aorta have mentioned it earlier, sorry. Thanks to Jan.

Love 'n hugs (which normally involves rotation of the scapulas and articulatio cubiti),

Viv
