            Sorry - I searched for Scottish Mustard, but they all seem to have whiskey in them, a crime of a magnitude I just cannot comprehend!

            Surely they had whisky in them. Otherwise they would be Irish! :-D Oh and mustard is the best. The brighter the yellow the better! :thumbsup:

                  my English sucks most days, and it is my first and only language. I only know a few dirty words in Spanish.(Mexican Spanish, not Spain or other countries)

                  Programming is a race between programmers trying to build bigger and better idiot proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots, so far... the universe is winning.

                              I have heard of three of those, and use them rarely. But anyway, I wouldnt really call it an influence on English since its not gramatical its just word borrowing.
