How did I manage to miss THIS (http://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/cartoons/horace/)? I am now getting my fix. I've started to catch up from the start of last October, and wonder how much further back this archive goes.

One quibble, there isn't a "next" button, which makes navigation awkward.
-
I think there's an error on this one...

There is?

You would think that after 20 years of things like monogrammed sherry glasses – the Wild West would be more of the Genteel West.

Can I hear the frantic googling of Peepmaster looking up the phrase "what all"?
-
Ah - is it a Scottish expression?

No, that was probably me.
(Google didn't help much, by the way.)
-
Damn. Really? "What all do you need?" It never crossed my mind that this was a Scottish expression.
Let's say a guy walks into a fishing shop and says to the assistant that he's going fishing at the weekend and needs a few things.
"What all do you need?" replies the assistant.
No?
-
Ha ha. I did Google it, and drew a blank. I suspected it might have been an expression local to Dundee.
Maybe you can do one where the shop assistant asks, "is that you?" That used to intrigue me when I first moved here. :-)
-
I've just mentioned this to my dear wife---who's a Londoner, as you know, Peeps...and she's perfectly happy with it. Although she did hazard a guess that it might be an American expression!
-
That's good. I think that if at least two people use the expression in the UK then it's perfectly acceptable.
Congratulations to Mince, by the way, on his new job proof-reading in a stick-of-rock factory.
-
There's a difference between "what" and "what all", with the second meaning "tell me everything". Try googling: "what all do": you will see enough examples of the usage.

Horace does as well, so that's at least three.

I'm not sure the wild west is actually in the UK.

A walk down Saracen Street in Glasgow may change your mind. (Please just accept this as fact and don't ever try it.) :o

What a smashing find this is Peeps, but can I just say that the biggest potential laugh may have been overlooked. Only two more clicks will get you to an "Ask Colleen Nolan..." page, where you can mail her a relationship problem.
Is it just me or would this make a cracking competition to see who could get the most outrageous one into print?
;D

How about "Should I tell my partner about my anal seepage?"

Yes, you do witter on a bit...
-
Yes, but it's wetter witter.
No it didn't take me ten days to think of that reply, I have been away.
