I've added all four of teamvennall - although only two of us are on previously unused dates. What a good idea!

We found one of those! My youngest son has attached it to his rucsac, so he can tell us which direction we're walking in - or alternatively, which direction he thinks we should be walking in! lol

Thought it was English not not Scottish? Well, in that case, no-one south of the border is allowed 'dwam'!! Oh! Yes. Everyone south o' border is alllowed to dwine, dwalm and a dwam but the question was English words. Or am I being pedantic and Scots really are English after all? Let's not go there... only dwam is a Scots word - dwine and dwalm are old English. Next question? And is the West Wing English?? For certain dwalm is originally Scottish but you may be correct with dwine being OE Ah well, I come from Leicestershire, so I'm not perfect! -

I can remember Joseph, Benjamin, Reuben, Simon, Isaac & Levi - there's no way I'm going to get all twelve 'though as my knowledge is musical rather than biblical. Maybe that'll help someone else! -

Is this to do with the main character not being previously mentioned in ANY of his other books, or is it to do with the 'chalk' thingy - of course, now there are two sequels, neither of the above really apply (sign). Or is it to do with a main character from the discworld having a walk-on part?? If not any of the above, I'm stuck - and I'm a librarian. -

Apparently seagulls can't pass wind (or so I'm told) so if you lace their bread with bicarb. of soda... they're in real trouble. I'm going to guess now - 2 pints.
