Quailing at the sound of Scandrea?

*heroic pose*
Heroes never quail! Courage, lass.

Nice job with the bird's nest btw.


Is quail a real word?

It's a real bird.

That'll do.

Heroes are never quails.

Another Inkwash utterance for the handbook maybe ? A665688

Definitely.

Another? Am I in there already?

or

Well if you're not you should be!

Your are indeed Inky ..... twice already

where? where? Need thread link!

The link is at posting 925 above old boy ...... then scroll down to "Handy Utterances"

Heavens to Murgatroid! Both the entries are from me!

Well, feel free to add "Heroes never quail", I won't copyright it.

There's 4 now as I wanted to capture the memorable "heavens to Murgatroyd" utterance ...... you weren't a Magpie afficiando were you by any chance ?

Heavens to Murgatroyd was said by a cartoon character from the Hanna Barbera camp - but I can't think which one... It'll come back eventually.

Snagglepuss.

Why on Earth do I know that?

*ponders*

Ah, yes. It is a side-effect of my librarian-ness.

*starts to hum Maybe it's because I'm a library-man... to himself*

That's the one! I think we should have a concerted effort at quotable quotes to be added.
*puts on thinking vest*
I may be a while...

So at some point in my past i've obviously *seen* Snagglepuss but now his name, identifiable in a crowd as it is, rings no bells at all.

He's a lot like the pink panther, with a hint of lion.

...and the Pink Panther doesn't speak.

<> *Walks in, bagpipes safely gone. He sniffs the air for a minute or two, before his fur bristles. Barks at Vestboy and Inky, that in no uncertain terms means "Follow me." He runs toward F51013?thread=407672&latest=1 * </>
