JUST A QUICKIE ON UK LANGUAGE GAMES
As said before the UK language games are either management training spraket ( you know those targets and things) or psycho-babble USA style. But there is another language game that I picked up on the recent travel. It relates to medico-verbosity ( and nobody seemed to know the meanings behind those words that they used).
For example I learnt about one person who had had a "STRAPADICKTOME" operation and I was told that that explained the constant smile and the wide open eyes.
Can anybody advise on this?
Would love to know........

Forgive me I meant no harm. After all I only asked for advice.
But now my e-mail is getting full of nitty-gritty questions and demands.
From the Melancholy through to the LaviBlues my good name is being trashed into the underground of reason and respectability.
Only a certain Anna Mr ( "Anna", in Finnish meaning "give me")seems to be polite to me.
From a certain Mrs Malaprop I hear that I am the reason why she wears woollen stockings.
Ah Dunno.....
I wear woollen stockings because I don't want your, the Beadle's, or anyone else's dick strapped to me.
I am a respectable woman.
Now Mrs Malaprop..........
HOW do you know what a 'dick' is....
Strapped to you or otherwise........hmmm?
And what makes you think that your woollen stockings would offer you any form of protection.......?
The main problem with Western Society is that "wants" are confused with "needs".
I bet Mrs Malaprop has experienced her toes mov ing up and down with the flow.
LavenderBlue you come to my rescue.
Was it not Anticant that invited us all to " ENTER MRS MALAPROP" ?
ZoZoBear.....it is the anniversary of Elvis today,yes ?
Uh-Huh.
Ok let's rock..........
Madam LB, I am no knicker waver.
Burn yer bra Mrs Malaprop it's ok.
I have assured Mrs Malaprop that your kayaking is all up the creek - all mouth and no paddle.
A paddle needs a SHAFT.
