What the heck is a "god-botherer"? Ortolan88

It's a British Englishism (used in Oz as well) describing somebody actively and publically involved in Christianity, including church hierachy but also particularly active lay Christians. It implies a fairly common attitude in Australia (and presumably in GB) that God, if he exists, has better things to do than pay attention to the histrionics of some of his followers and that a better use for their time would be living their own lives in accordance with his teachings and let other people get on with theirs. It's generally regarded as derogatory (but some people fitting the description have reclaimed the term in the same ways that other marginalized groups have done), so I'm going to remove it unless he self-describes specifically as one. --Robert Merkel

Thanks. I'm pretty sure Neddy was a good man.Ortolan88

Vic Reeves reference

Is it really necessary to have Vic Reeves "pie and peas" reference in here? I notice that the same contributer has put it in twice now, but it's not really relevant to Harrys life or career. If everyone is agreeable I will remove it--Crais459 12:14, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia article also include Trivia. Reeves was one of the most popualr comics in the 1990s and therefore it is a noteable piece of Triva! 205.188.116.197 19:16, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

smas.me.uk?

The link to the Spike Milligan Appreciation Society currently takes people to a site on the future of rail... Can anyone find the current link, or is this all part of the joke? Bob aka Linuxlad 19:52, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Book/Books?

What's the Wikipedia convention on book listings? An entertaining life is the omnibus of "Strawberries & Cheam" and "Arias And Raspberries" plus new material, but does that mean that the two separate volumes don't get mentioned? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Loathsomeleopard (talk • contribs) 09:59, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
