One question:

What's a "peanut gallery"?
Back in the days when nudity first came to Paris theatre, the naked women we not allowed to move, as if they did, the performance was deemed obscene under Law.

So they would stand perfectly still.

The people in the front rows would flick peanuts at them to try to make them move.


See?

Oh, I know that one. It's what you do when you don't believe someone...scratch your chin while uttering one or more of teh following:
Itchy chin.
Chinny rackon
Cinzano.
Jimmy Hill (he of the monstrous chin)
Belm (actually..that's not a chin thing is it?)

An expression of disbelief by 13 year old boys. And 34 year old men.

Errr, you sure soov? Its about the cheap seats, where the noisiest rabble were, back in the days of music hall. They would be eating and therefore throwing the cheapest food available in the theatre.... peanuts.

Ah, right! Thanks for that. I was wondering why Jimmy Hill wouldn't tell his daughter to get her own insurance. wink

Someone I know has their car in their parents name on the insurance, even though it's not their car, beggars belief really.

Report them. So when they run someone over they will actually be insured.

madness - make the decision to get insurance or not, but to pay for not being insured makes no sense at all

edit .. actually I suppose it's because you can tax it and it doesn't appear as uninsured on police checks, even though it is
