May I ask what you have for No 31 Might one find this liability at a garden fete? (5,8) I cannot get White Elephant out of my mind, but cannot see where liability fits in.
A White Elephant is a liability. In India Rajah's often gave a White Elephant to someone who had annoyed them as they had to spend large amounts on upkeep - could not get rid of it - and could not earn any money from it as it could not be used for work.
