Doctor Quack Quack!

I have to admit, I think of Slash-M whenever anyone mentions Doctor Quack Quack.   

No, Slash-M is not a doctor nor is he a duck; but we did play Doctor Quack Quack! as kids quite often.   It's a game where the chosen "It" has to untangle the remaining players from their convoluted state of disarray as a result of having gone over or under each other's linked hands.  The "It" wins if he is able to 'fix' the other players' position back to their original position, without anyone letting go,which forms a circle with linked hands.

Maybe it was one of those games I enjoyed playing with him because Slash-M was on an even playing field as the girls.   He was a strong swimmer, a fast runner, a good ball player.  He could do tricks on the bike and ride a skateboard.  He was killer in cards and ruthless at board games.  And with the exception of " London Eye is a SQUIRREL!", I remember Slash-M as someone who was a good hider and a good seeker.  

It was fun to play games with him.  Even if he was the only boy among so many girls at the time, he still played with us.

Anyway, I chanced upon the pictured car this morning which led me down memory lane.  

I said to myself,
 "Yes, this guy owns an Audi so he must have a good practice 


but would I trust this doctor if I found out he chose this as his license plate?"

London Eye is a SQUIRREL???

What was *that* about?

Was this like saying Eldest Sis was a hag?
