Must be a Briticism . . . I'm fond of puns too (to the dismay of many here) but this one went over my head.

Thanks for the reccomend on the legs!
I like that price a LOT better than some of the ones I have been looking at.

Somehow you never struck me as a diamond earing kind of guy. I could see you with some gold studs maybe, but diamonds . . . never!

Well it was a pun of sorts, it was this... "whatever catches my eye while hiking" that lead me to say " 'hiking' caught my eye ". Not very funny then

Aaahh! I get it now.

DST (daylight savings time) and getting up an hour earlier than usual means I'm a bit slow on the uptake. Off to get more coffee. . . . ..
