    I think it would be fun to post up some of the more outlandish collective nouns you can find. Either that or make 'em up. Examples might include:

    (i) A 'Murder' of Crows.
    (ii) A very pompous acquaintance whose family name is Ritchie suggested that his annual family gatherings should be termed a 'Knowledge of Ritchies'. Git.
    (iii) A Brace of Grouse
    (iv) A 'Billing' of Consultants

    Don't just cheat by going to Wikipedia - they're best if you think 'em up yourself!

    The other day, a load of crows turned up in my garden, I called up the police and said I'd like to report a murder.
    They asked if I could describe them.
    I said yeah, they were all black!

    If I may make so bold, Hoppie, something like a 'bounce' of Boobs might be closer! Try again;)
