Why Can't The English Teach Their Children How To Speak?

Oi, I think this is written in our language...

Again, I think this is in English...but it could just be another example of the British pulling our legs.

Paul Cornell baffles us with the alleged language of Shakespeare in Knight And Squire #2.

  1. Yep, that's British - as spoken by "ye olde stereotypes".

    But I understand it ;)

    Who hasn't done a bit of cheese rolling (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheese_rolling), drunk cider (scrumpy), listened to Steeleye Span and then indulged in some Morris Dancing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_dance ????

  2. Cornell actually had explanations for all of that at the end of the issue -- I almost skipped it 'cause it looked too much like an advertisement...

  3. Well, The Acrobatic Flea pipped me to the post with the explanations so I'm off to the pub for a few bevvies, followed by a ruby with half and half and a keema.

  4. As it's cats and dogs out there, I'm staying in for a cup of rosie lee and an evening with the goggle box. That said, I could murder a ruby...
