Tradition, innit. We take furrin words and pronounce them how we like,
not having any truck with poofy furrin pronunciations, until they've
become part of _our_ culture.

 

Ahh, I *see*

When I were a lad, even the TV advert used to say, "Nessles Milky Bar."

 

<nods>

Aye, 'appen as like.

 

Well, the ads I saw said Neslays milky bar.

That sort of pun is your raison d'etre isn't it?

 

Champ said:

I think that's your bete noir. Although I don't think your last pun had
that certain je ne sais quoi.

We only call Paris "Paree" when we stick the word "Gay" in front of it.

 

Catman says...

Nessles on my telly too. Maybe you were still watching on VHF 405 lines
when everyone else had changed to UHF 625 lines. It made all the
difference you know.

 

And what IS the German for Schadenfreude?

 

More likely the other way around, old man

Gé Paree!

 

Catman says...

625 UHF replaced 405 VHF. I remember the change over cos my old man is
a TV engineer.

It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the

"My suggestion is to completely ignore idiots like Leland. They are the
lowest form of pond scum. People like him have tried unsuccessfully in
the past to disrupt the newsgroup. The best medicine is to completely
ignore them. As I'm sure you'll see, they're most intelligent response
is to yell nasty names. Other than that, they have nothing."

"I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen;
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires."

William Blake.

Yes, but the point I waws trying to make is that (I think) you;re older than
I am, and being a bit stuck in your ways would have been watching on 405
until they stopped it from working (or whatever)

Not really worth it, was it?

Or "Dakar" after it.
