Blacksnow, Blacksnow, here we go go:

GERMANY

Manger - as in dog in the
Mange - as in some bloggers are afflicted by it, others aren't
Yearn - as in when you are confused, you yearn for someone to explain
Name - as in what a lovely new name you've got, Durbs, a beautiful oxymoron with hints at the haikus you often lay before us
Year - as in some people come out with the same old gripes year after year
Gran - as in my granny who I never confused with a granary
Yarm - a place near Middlesborough which is very pretty, not to be confused with my yard, which is not
Anger - as in some people don't half get a bee in their bonnet about ridiculous things

Tata and here's some beers...

more from my dictionary --

1. gena - cheek of animals/Zoological word

2. mage - magician (Archaic)

3. mang - for "among" in Scottish

4. mangy  - shabby; could be caused by the disease MANGE, LOL!
