Why are British men so much nicer and better than Canadian men??????
Jessica Stewart // Vancouver // GET WHAT YOU'RE GIVEN

Hi Jess

The Canadian government were unwilling to coment on your question and are looking to quash the crazy talk of people like you. While they welcome foreigners they're worried that your tales of great UK guys are going to start a backlash. Take your fight underground and start smuggling in Europeans. You can hide your particular preference, the British male, in with others to improve your chances of keeping him. If you create enough of a demand you can be sure to fetch a pretty penny for your imported men. Good luck with the business.

What is the short word for a Glaswegian, like Manc, Geordie, Scouse, Cockney and so on?
Christoph Lamby Pie // Down south somewhere // GET WHAT YOU'RE GIVEN

Hi Chris

The local term for a Glaswegian is a 'Weigy'. There are also capped youth Glaswegians who are known as 'Neds' and hang around in small groups drinking 'White Lightning' and saying things like 'Mauuun then'. I also found this guide to help you if you ever visit :)

Where can you buy pyjamas for dogs in the UK?
Emily McMahon // London // Sensible

Hi Emily

As bizarre as it sounds, you can get dog pyjamas for dogs in the UK and the place which kept popping up during my research was www.petplanet.co.uk which stocks 2 types of PJ starting at £15.99. They're pictured here and you can follow the link and search on their site to find what you're looking for. Hope it keeps your pooch happy :)

How do I MP3 a minidisc I have of Steve playing guitar onto my iBook?
Richard Hopwood // Manchester // Sensible

Hi Rich

This is a tricky one as your beautiful iBook doesn't have a built in audio input. As you know me the simplest solution is to bring it with you next time you come and see me and we can record it using the optical input on my PC :) However I did find this on the Apple store which has a standard 3.5mm stereo input jack which would give really good quality recording of your mini disc from its line out.
