This is what cultural exchange is all about...I think...
For instance, I have to stretch my knowledge and intuition to figure out what 'a right dill' is...Perhaps we'll have a chance to consult Paul about the name 'Peter'. The word "bing!!" deserves a thread of its own...

"Bing".... The imaginary sound when that little light bulb suddenly appears over one's head!

I named my Sunbeam Tiger "John Thomas". Seemed appropriate at the time.

Sure as heck beats 'Daisy' or 'Gladys', Paul!! I've never put names to cars, but for some reason people often use female names when they do. I wonder why that is.............
Same as cyclones over here. Up until a few years ago they were all given female names. I did get caught up in cyclone 'Bob' in New Caledonia in the early 80s, but that was named in Noumea.
