[SLUG] UWell, it might amuse some people.

The trouble with posting summat like this is that:-- 1) Some will say it's off-topic and not funny. 2) Some will say that it's funny, but that they've seen it. 3) Some will want to add to it with definitions of their own. These are generally quite good. I'll risk it. Regards, Bill bennett
