Well, the penny has obviously dropped for Kalira, but I'm still bemused. I'm no film buff, but I'm pretty sure that 'Mikey Mouth Sloth' is not a movie ... hmmm ... some sort of weird phonetic mutation, or spoonerism, or such? And blue is absolutely the last step? Have we tried minor details? Personal details? Details = removes the tail from? Someone has 'de-tailed' Mickey Mouse? With a lithp? Aaargh ... this should be so obvious!
