....yes indeed, I am a bit freaked out!     Most of those I've never seen before; I especially like "11 + 2 and The slot machines."     😀 😀 😀

These are great. Most I have not seen, and my favorite is the eleven plus one.

Here is another for you. I live in Village of Inverness.

Rearrange letters of Inverness, and you get

If you rearrange the letters in "quite amazing," they spell "Jack Dodds." Ironic, huh??

"....my favorite is the eleven plus one."

"11 +1?"    I missed that, how does it go?    🤨

Now that list of rearrangements looks like a full evening of entertainment. Keeping the rewording relevant must have been especially challenging.

@jack-dodds, thanks. But, if you dig deeper, you'll find that the etymology of "Illustrious Member" goes back to its roots in the ancient and lost Parthesian language and means "Quite Amazing"

@jkuvakas   Aaaah....I am once again humbled....yet curiously complimented and conflicted at the same time.  Being somewhat "ancient and lost" myself, I'm puzzled what the study of insects has to do with my name origin.

@jack-dodds, for a guy with the scholastic achievements you have attained, you don't know much about language. That really bugs me. 😯
