Subject: THWAPS !!

Dr Doom I see has the subject of Thwaps wrapped up. But shouldn't a little
more history go into it. I'm sure the idea of being hit with carps came from
a Monty Python film, or was it trouts, anyway the trout became a carp and a
thwap appeared from somewhere, oh the film "The Quest For The Holy Grail".

Couple of vaguely remembered lines.

"Now was that an African swallow or a European one ?"

"Come back I'll bite your ankles off !"

"But it's only a rabbit"

Phill.
