I had a look at some of the Post and it's interesting. I can't actually understand a word of it, but that's probably explained by the fact that I'm not British smiley - smiley

Hello EchidnaZ

I am glad that you found The Post interesting. Was there anything in particular that you didn't understand or the whole thing? Perhaps I can be of assistance? smiley - ok

We have a good few contributors who are also not British, by the way, and some for whom English isn't their first language. smiley - smiley

I didn't understand the cartoons, or the other bits I read (not much, anyway). I guess people have to have a British sense of humour, even if they aren't British themselves.

Congratulations on working out your name change smiley - ok

Cartoons - let's see: 'Platypus Dancing' and 'Inanimate' are drawn by Americans, h2g2 Life was drawn by an Aussie and all the others are from the UK. 'Inside h2g2' is mostly based on the italics who run this site so, as you are new, they probably wouldn't make much sense. smiley - winkeye

Don't worry, though! You're not the only one around here who doesn't always 'get' the cartoons. smiley - biggrin
