Little Egypt
There is a great deal of distance between Chicago, Illinois and London Road, Twickenham - 3949.71 miles to be precise, given a yard or two - but there is definitely a connection between the two involving a long-gone exotic belly dancer at one end and a 1960’s Twickenham R&B band at the other.

The Grand Howl
On those rare occasions when mention of ‘Cub Scouts’, or ‘Wolf Cubs’ as they used to be known, comes up in conversation, I can guarantee that someone will always say “Dyb! Dyb! Dyb! Dob! Dob! Dob” although they don’t know what it means or that this strange chant has not been used in Cub ceremonies since 1966!
