Scouse is somewhat familiar to American ears, but I prefer the far more musical northeastern dialect of Newcastle-on-Tyne (where The Animals came from) and Northumbria. Both are better and more comprehensible than Mancusian. It's in the home counties of the south that English has really deteriorated the most. Dick Van Dyke would feel at home.
I love Mac on <i>Get Fuzzy</i>. It is always interesting to try and translate what he's saying. I wish Darby hadn't quit. It has been 10 years since he stopped doing the dailies and 8 years for the Sunday strips.
Great toon and fun blog. Great Natasha, although Tulci also has a Lily Munster thing going on. Sounds like a lovely breakfast. Hope there was blood pudding. In Dublin, we found good fish & chips at Beshoff's. The skate (ray) was excellent.
This toon and blog are fun, would be funnier if it weren't true. Following you around England is fun. Thanks for sharing.
Agree with Susan here. It's been great fun following you around Britain. Will be glad to have you back home safe and sound. Safe travels.
Are you sure those guys aren't related to Senator Susan Collins?
It took me a while to figure out he was singing Dancing Queen, holy cow!!!
LOL! Dancing Queen?? Thank you, Judy - I never would have figured it out! Too funny!

Dammit. I was going to put the white streak in and I forgot. Shit.
I swear the Orange Guy is just picking the worst of the worst - and today it's Kash Patel for FBI Director??? WTAF??
Reading about your adventures across the pond gave me the best laugh I've had all day! Sounds like you're having fun ... I'm glad!
Any of those fascists heard of the Magna Carta?
The one that protects baronial rights? At the expense of the people - and the King? I'm sure they love it! Show me the body!
