Dd used to go into school aged 6 and declare 'my hovercraft is full of eels' in her best Hungarian accent. So proud. Grin

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our three weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our four...no... Amongst our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again

Can I just say this is the first time I've been on television?

YouTheCat · 25/03/2013 21:16

And now a man with 9 legs...

He ran away.

HamAlive · 25/03/2013 21:21

Oh yes, I do apologise.

Fghonn? Pronounced John, obviously.

My mum bribed me with ice cream in 1978 to go into a very posh cheese shop in York and ask for Venezuelan Beaver Cheese

LadyIsabellaWrotham · 25/03/2013 21:23

Would you like a five minute AIBU or the full half hour?

YouTheCat · 25/03/2013 21:26

Oh god! Gordy that is brilliant. Grin

Did they have any?

NorksAreMessy · 25/03/2013 21:27

How about "Knight Jose Ni" as an alternative, in case he turns out to be a girl?

YouTheCat · 25/03/2013 21:28

Or Zoot?

livinginwonderland · 25/03/2013 21:30

slippysofa · 25/03/2013 21:33

norks the way this thread is going, it might be the full half hour.

No it isn't.

OP posts:
livinginwonderland · 25/03/2013 21:35

yes it is.

YouTheCat · 25/03/2013 21:36

That's not an argument.

OhDearieDearieMe · 25/03/2013 21:36

Doug and Dinsdale Piranha once nailed my head to a coffee table. True.

slippysofa · 25/03/2013 21:37

No. It's just contradiction. A proper argument isn't just saying "no it isn't"
