        You can stay on the rails with a swing nose frog:

        or lose the plot with another amphibian.

              I think that Mark Twain's first short story to be published (I might be wrong) was 'The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County'. This is an account of a powerful frog that lost a bet because someone loaded it with shot.

                How about Jeremy Fisher (Beatrix Potter), and Kiki in 'Hector's House'?

                    A Frog is also an ornamental braiding consisting of a button and a loop fastening front of garment, as in Miltary uniforms eg see Hussars,

                          Wow … what a lot of information from so many people … thank you everybody … that should keep me busy for quite a while.

                          TO NIGEL GRAHAM 2 please … how did you know I was trying to write a book ? one section I am stuck with unfortunately … in the "jam butty mines" at Knotty Ash there was an 18 inch tramway system … the entrance is secret and guarded by the "Diddy Men" … I cant find any of them to arrange access … without important facts like these the book would fail … maybe I should stay in the garden and talk to the tame frog who lives on my railway track … he keeps playing "chicken" as my locos are approaching him.

                            To all who replied to my question …. thank you … my original reply to everyone arrived as "edit post" and now seems to have vanished from the forum … never mind.
