Ask a British Person.......

For the same reason that Dick Van Dyke pisses us off

Wow, way to live in the present. When was the last time he adopted a British accent, 1965 for Mary Poppins? I was thinking of Elijah Wood and Madonna.

One explanation is it related to when you bought ale "on the slate" and it was time to settle your bill.P's and Q's were references to pints and quarts.

That's about as close to correct as possible, I think.

So, thats why Dick Van Dyke annoys me so much!! I never noticed his accent was fake! Now it all makes sense.

He's still an arsehole, we never forget! Why isn't he dead yet?!? Wish he would diagnose his own murder!!
Although I think Don Cheadle's effort in Ocean's 11 should see him hung drawn & quartered!

& of course the elegance of the Custard Cream...

For some reason eating these always conjures up the feeling of a rather sophisticated Afternoon Tea in the Victorian age. I'm sure Sherlock Holmes partook of a few when pondering a particularly tricky set of clues!

There's a school in Mansfield called the Garibaldi.
Fancy naming a school after a biscuit.
