Very funny FD. Doubtless it is the same root source of quinine?

Sheesh FD. That last frame looks like a certain well known cartoonist got stuck in a hall of mirrors. Spooky!

The world was a better place when the fashion was to eat Weetbix for breakfast.
There was way less pollution then, too.
Convince me it was merely coincidence.

I hippily (if that’s a word) pop quinoa into the mince, but even red meat and tomato sauce can’t disguise the foul taste.
(Hello Zut, weetbix is the world’s strongest glue and should only be used as such)

Deary me First Dog, don’t you know it’s not pronounced ‘kwee noo’.
In the north it’s pronounced ‘kee no’ and it is used in a gambling game similar to Bean Goo (pronounced ‘bin go’) where numbered grains are drawn from a container and the numbers marked off players’ tickets.
In the rural south it is pronounced ‘ko nee’ and it is fed to shiftless youth to turn them into bloodthirsty child soldiers.

No, you may not,AL. It is an invention of the pagan, and the lies of its goodness are a Hodge-Podge of Superstition, Popery, the Devil and all his Works , and the all-consuming Lake of Fire will be your reward.

I may be getting old and going senile, but the cartoon seems to be missing a footnote, or is the asterisk after “La Paz” a squashed quinoa?

Ugliness: it’s one of the Cardinal’s new footnotes - you have to believe in the sanctity of the confessional before you can see what it’s referring to. One can, however, make a good guess that it’s something to do with the south end of a northbound cat.

It’s the same family as ‘good king henry’ or ‘fat hen’ which has long been eaten by the hard up in ole Blighty.
