And you forgot Max Wall!!!

Wikipedia lists 41 different people with the surname 'Wall'. It's highly unlikely that I'll include any of them, unless they also happen to be a wall.

Not even Wall-E?

MMF

Where's Wall-E?

You find out!!!

That was a 'Where's Wally' picture

Looks good... Thought of another wall, related to music, (maybe near the wall of sound bit?).
I've seen a few software compressors, that have a 'brick wall', basically set a level in noise a loudness above which it won't let the music go... the brick wall is the limit to how it'll let the volume rise up to not sure if thats explainging it very well I'll get me hat

Wally's in the middle behind the 'elderly' couple - the man with the green vest on

Good to see this in PR now

Nothing to add, did it's dues in the EGWW as far as I can tell

A couple of minor points Skanky:

<>
Great Wall of China is the longest wall ever built, and is visible from outer space

> Word >> World

seperates >> separates

<>

That's quite a major point. I can't remember who I was discussing it with, but I clearly remember explaining to someone very patiently that you can't see the Great Wall from space, let alone 'outer' space, and yet I've left it in the entry...

What, no sausages or ice cream?

Seriously, I think Thomas Wall's company is worth a mention, as it's one of the biggest food brands in the UK.

I'd tell you what they put in their sausages, but Wall's have ears, you know...

Oh, any possibility of adding my favourite Pam Ayres poem as a blockquote?

"I am a dry stone waller
All day I dry stone wall
Of all appalling callings
Dry stone walling's worst of all"

Icy

That was originally in there, but as nobody wrote anything for it (myself included) it ended up being removed.

Any suggestions for a paragraph, Icy?

I can't believe you forgot to link to A28868160, after all that work on the Hadrian's wall project .

I'll see what I can do, Vip

I wonder if you'd like to add anything about decorating walls? wallpaper, pargetting, graffiti?

>>When Emperor Antoninus Pius succeed Hadrian in 136 AD<<

Succeeded.

How about a bit of Wall destruction as per
"Right," said Fred, " Have to take the wall down,
That there wall is gonna have to go."

Bernard Cribbins?
