Going back to The Peepmaster's mention of "parking his horsie", why do we "PARK" a car? Why "CAR PARK"? Why not "CAR MEADOW"? Who first coined this and why? I suppose I could look this up but I can't be bothered.

In my student days, when my team, Wolves had players called Willie Carr and Derek Parkin on the books, I once asked another of the players, Steve Kindon, whether the club had Carr-Parkin facilities. I think he groaned.

Perhaps the place used to be a park before it was concreted over. I can't be bothered to look it up either.

I think it's a backward krap question.

Maybe it's an acronym (from someone who can't spell): Peepmaster Always Recks Kars

I seem to remember a line in a film I was watching as a teenager in Ramsgate. (I think it was at the Odeon, rather than the Kings across the road). I don't remember the dialogue word for word, but it went along the lines of: "Why not finish the evening in style at the Koh I Nor Restaurant, 15, High Street, Ramsgate".

Are you saying that this line from the film spent its teenage years in Ramsgate?
