I want you to kill Nicholas Parsons, and I want you to make it clean. But if you can't make it clean, make it messy. If you can't make it messy, make it noisy. And if you can't make it noisy, make it silly!

Nah, I don't think it's that but I'm starting to suspect it may not be a mine after all but I'll post some picture and let you lot be the judge::
