Patron Saint of Kittens... aka Pantherlady THE Werepanther of h2g2 and Queen of BBNs

Apparently this word is in common usage in the south of england. I'm utterly confused. I've only heard it in Blackadder and I am now utterly utterly confuslified. Ah well...

I don't know about anyone else in the south, but myself and my friends use it ironically, and rarely.

I think 'huzzah' is like this Russian Cossack thing or summat. Used ironically.

I always fougnt huzzah was an old upper class British thing;
eg. "Huzzah, we've won the boat race old chap, jolly good show, oh huzzah, huzzah."


I can't think of anyone using it nowadays except to take the p**s, or in Jeeves & Wooster productions.
