You get that too? It happens to me all the time, in some cases there
are more results for misspelt words than the real thing... which is a
bit sad.

Your wombat thing got me thinking, but after 2 minutes of trying, and
half a minute of getting annoyed, the best I could do was:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=stapler+perambulate

sigh... always a bridesmaid and all that.

I do remember getting one googlewhack on a subject I was genuinely
interested in a little while ago, but my short term memory ain't so
hot and I think there were many terms in the search query.

Never mind, back to work.

Cheers all for the excellent diversion.
