18 The average BCGer always deviates from a thread.
19 The avergae BCGer is probably from London or Wales. Which is nice for the Welsh ones.
In the spirit of (18) and considering I do originally fit (19), let me say that every time I read "BCG" I think of that terrifying TB innoculation we had to endure at age 13 - a big queue of schoolboys in the gym shitting themselves but trying their best to appear unconcerned. There followed a week of getting your upper arm slapped by bullies. I still bear the scars.

Although they were very fashionable in the early 80s; bit of a Dexy's and rockabilly thing.

Yet again a whiff of Metrocentricism floats across the forum . . .
I think it's nice the metropoles here share their wisdom with the benighted barbarians from the provinces and (shudders) Wales.
