That letter is so you! :)

If I'd read that, there's no way I'd be thinking it was a different Anna... it's just too bizarre to be anyone else! :lol:

Well done on the game, though - I got a copy of Burnout 1 from C&VG back in the day. :)

Far from porking a guitar player, it just means having a pee. ;)

I think you mean Star Spangled Banner... Land of Hope and Glory is this place (http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Land_of_Hope_and_Glory).

But it's obviously not a universal expression, or Guns n Roses finest would have chosen some other stage name.

I always thought it was a scottish term (and Klingon, probably), but I guess it's uk wide now... :)

3 years??!! No chance mate!! More like 23 years - at least! Me and my jolly chums were certainly 'going for a slash' in our younger days - and that would be late seventies, early eighties. In Sheffield, not Scotland.

For more on the etymology of urination slang, please see my book, 'The Way We Used To Piss', published by The Pointing Percy Press, available from Amazon NOW.

Ahem. :roll:

No probs Piranha man. It's an important issue, and one I'm always happy to debate. :wink:
