Beg your Honour’s pardon! but I was only thinking, how they’d have stared at him. If what I have heard be true, your Honour! they would not have understood a word he said. When our Vicar was here, Dr. L. the master of the great school and Canon of Windsor, there was a great dinner party at maister’s; and one of the farmers, that was there, told us that he and the Doctor talked real Hebrew Greek at each other for an hour together after dinner. D. But do you not know, that he has distributed papers and hand-bills of a seditious nature among the common people?

The traffic is said to slow down not only because of the accident or the construction, but because of all the lookie-loos, who slow down to see what is going on. It seems pretty clear that the first quotation uses the old sense and the next two are ambiguous, but from 1868 on micturition just means ‘urination’. I have to admit to being a looky-loo, especially when it is a matter of just getting out of the house for something to do. I love to look at new products and spend time examining my options.Summer is looking forward to collect some more KookyLoos to grow her new collection.
