# blighty
not too sure, a remnant from the war.
freshlegs has a book about this sort of stuff - where words come from and all that. develishment or whatever it''s called, can't remember at the moment. 'The entymology of a word'
oooh wow that was clever, i wrote that all in one flow and 'entymology' just popped out as i typed.

# isn't that the study of insects?
etymology is the word you might be looking for.

# well it was a bit biased
the part of my brain that threw that word out is also the part responsible for recognising whether or not it is the corrct word so just like self regulating bankers it stiched me up a treat.

Ta. Yes I think it probably has an interesting tale behind it. Blighty that is.
