English evolves in usage, it is as used, not some frozen calcified thing :D

That's obtuse to 96.3% of the world.

Wasn't there tins of beer or lager called Excalibur? In a blue tin, if memory serves me correct.
Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Wow. Ian is defending an Americanism. Alert the media!

Excuse me, would you mind if I had just a sip?
No. You're obviously too young!

Besides which, when you drank that glass of port we had three chambermaids in the infirmary for weeks ... as well as two page boys, the blacksmith's dog and the Duke of Westmorland, who, might I remind you is 76!

The blacksmith's dog will never look a pork chipolata in the eye again without wincing.

Neither, to be fair, will the Duke of Westmorland.

Cheers Ithoriel.

Seems a funny brew, though. Top of the tin it calls itself a beer... and at the bottom a lager! Is it transitioning?
