Not the three elled llama

For a long time this mostly empty blog has been called LLama magic, as it says on the label it came in a blinding flash in about 2003 on a bike tour somewhere. Myself and a few friends rode past a hobby farm of the same name and something tickled our collective fancies - maybe it was the llama wool. For the rest of the morning and days to follow we sniggered and chuckled about "llama magic in the handy squeeze tube" and "giant family packs of llama magic".

Was it fair to appropriate their name for this blog? Who nose.

A renaming has been lurking in the isles for a while, spurred on by some of the more egregious grammatic faux pas and lousy pronunciation experienced in the modern media. Caution; frustrated proof-reader at work.

Well here we are; "Llama ardour" it is, a Mondegreen of sorts, catalysed by an advertisement for a Spanish film festival and left as an exercise for the reader.
