Oh, waily, waily, waily! There was the foldin' of the arms! There
was the tappin' of the feets! Waily, waily, waily!

And, er... The UK edition should be the _original_ -- Pratchett's
a UK native, last I heard. It's the US version that risks editing;
at the least, they tend to remove the "u" from colour.

I've a feeling that the "unabridged" may have been overstated, if there
were not the pursin' of the lips included. Waily!
