I thought the Wombles were guys in Womble suits.
No, that was just Mike Batt and the music. The Wombles series was the animated pupettoon stuff. Voiced by Bernard Cribbins, as I recall.
Edit: X-post with jimi. If you know too much about this stuff, then so do I....
SILENT VELCRO??? That's so fucking cool!
I'm relieved to know that when Min was talking about skivvies, she did not mean the color of their underwear. I was quite perturbed.
while the 1970's series was made in England, with Bernard Cribbens doing all the voices/narration.
Phew. Okay, I've definitely got Bernard Cribbens credited here.
oooh, silent velcro! where can I invest?
silent opening of satchel in lectures.. silent opening of pant pockets during movies.. I love it!
also.. back to the skivvy definitions? used colloquially for uncircumcised. IJS.
Wow plasmo, that's a new one
Who needs a dictionary of porn slang when you have the Buffistas?
Heard last night on So Graham Norton that fanny was British for goolie.
Well he was talking to Jackie Stallone who had a book about Asstrology and something on it said fanny-grams.
Also, Jackie Stallone is S-C-A-R-Y.
Yes, fanny is British/Australian for goolie, so remember they're "bum bags" not fanny packs; but also, of course, goolies is British/Australian for boy parts, not girl parts.
