"This is just a formality." explains St. Peter, "We've had trouble with Al Qaeda showing up with dodgy papers lately. As extra security I'll have to ask you a question - just to make sure you are who you say you are."

(another blue lamb).
"But what did Eve say when she first saw Adam coming towards her in the Garden?"
