Never found a teapot- I did however find a monkey, 4 lizards and a pack of Camels.  The generous amounts of consumed alcohol may have helped!

Yes Alcohol is a famous brain enhancer/solvent.
Well, one of them at least :)

Cool Neil. Myself I've decided it's a joke.
You're sure you saw it?

And where is my cup?

If you cross your eyes it just pops right out of the mass - of course some people just see that way, mostly NASA scientists.

Incredible... . .   .

I found the Teapot, Single malt folks.
It makes all the difference..

Oh, and being slightly 'cross eyed' seems to help too?

Yeah I know, stop drinking and get a life, huh.

Yep, did it sober too, heck, where would Science be without experimenting, if you unfocus your eyes just 'right' you can see three teapots. One small and two larger behind it?

Or am I still under the influence?

Damn those teapots and jellyfishes anyway :)

LOL! A row of them with busty tops and feminine curvy dancing hips! NO TEAPOTS...lol..

Simple, you just need to look after teapots, and when you find them they are all mine, mine I say, all of them. Yesss, I will come to teapot heaven, my precociouss, I will. I think Karen is in denial here, or else she's trying to smuggle them out?

The centre of the image, let your eyes wobble a little (un-focus) but you better not see more than three or I will have to report you to the proper Swedish authorities, and then they will take your driving license. I know they do. They are quite serious about teapots here...

(Heh, better keep it rigged, I don't want to lose, do I:)
