Gentlemen: In order not to divert this thread I've started another on the 'evils' of the flatcap: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...322#post663322
The 'Eathen in his idleness bows down to wood and stone,
'E don't obey no orders unless they is his own,
He keeps his side arms awful,
And he leaves them all about,
Until up comes the Regiment and kicks the 'Eathen out.

Seriously, though, I think that what chasem says also applies in my part of Canada. I think I'm going to try to improve my manners, though. 
Sounds a bit French to me, like eating cheese and hoisting 'le bunting blanc'.
Could be worse posh English Gals (and their under-the-thumb menfolk) go in for air kissing. "Dahling, Mwah! Mwah!"
(Wasn't quite sure what was objected to last time I posted these general ideas but hope this does not offend)

Steady, mate...I doubt my Cajun French inlaws would respond too kindly to such a comment.

I understood that the Cajuns are pretty contemptuous of the metro lot - its why they left for a start.
