Rog and I love watching V. Graham Norton's show on BBC America. There was an esp. funny episode rerun this week with Sarah Bernhard.

Graham started talking about words commonly used in the UK which are not well known in the US. After naming a few, he got onto "Snog." He said, in the office that week, they'd been ringing up bars in NYC asking if they allowed snogging. If one called and the person who answered put someone else on because they couldn't answer, then you'd had a good call.

Anyway, he made a call on the show to a bar in NYC called Morgan's. It was hilarious. He went on and on, eventually talking to four different people, embellishing his request with each one, asking if snogging was allowed, as he was meeting a friend there and they wanted to snog. He also asked if they had snogging booths and non-snogging booths; was snogging allowed after 9p.m.; would some of the employees like to snog with them? The last person said, "Snog? Isn't that kissing?" so the game was up.

For anyone who hasn't seen AND heard his show, I guess it probably loses something in the telling, but it did remind me of MORTICIA and her famous snogging threads which we haven't had much of lately and made me happy to be a Mudcatter 'cause I KNEW what he was on about!

Snog On, 'catters! And, thanks Mortee!!
