mlabofski@yahoo.co.uk - 22 Jul 2005 19:30 GMT I have to assume that if the USA gets to see the wonderful Little Britain they will stop referring to cats as "bitties" - it makes me cringe every time I see that word now!

I have no idea what you're talking about, care to elaborate? What is a bittie in the UK?

It's only in Little Britain, the sketch where David Walliams wants to breast feed from his mother and cries "bittie" every time he does it, yuk!

What is a > bittie in the UK? I am in the UK and I have no idea why Marcia is cringing. Although I have never watched Little Britain (TV series, a bit alternative) so I might agree with her if I had, must be a word we know not the meaning of if we haven't seen it. Turn the TV off, girl! who needs one when they have a computer? <g>/joke

Karen - 22 Jul 2005 20:07 GMT There is a horse racing right now called Itty Bitty Pretty and I always think of kittens when I see it.

I actually think I'm the one who started "bitties" around here...DP and I started using it as a short form for "itty bitty kitties." Because our l'il bits weren't proper kittens when we found them. A proper kitten is an 8 week old ball of fluff. These were 2-3 week old, verminlike little...well, little bits. The size of rodents, curled up on their sides, eyes shut, desperately small....protocats.

mlabofski@yahoo.co.uk - 23 Jul 2005 18:06 GMT It's not what it refers to that makes me cringe, it's the thought of David Walliam or whatever he's called, attempting to breast feed off his mother in public (the guy's in his 30's). It's gross!

I had to get someone to explain ... "Little Britain" just passed me by. I think we saw about five minutes of the first ep.
