Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-)))

A shot from last year of tourists in Oxford. The guy third from the left is clearly walking backwards and I am guessing he is also talking backwards. This leads, neatly, to "Talk Backwards" by Steve Goodman.....methinks :-))

Go out with someone and you're a
little shy don't say I love you; say
Uoy evol I. Uoy evol I and I always will
See if doesn't take off the chill
Talk Backwards

Love it when Steve says "No laughing by the camera crew" :-)))

Interesting street scene.

On the subject of talking backwards I used to hear an Australian that sang Blueberry Hill with each line backwards.

Here there is a well known song (To Danish children) called "Snake Baglens") in it the lyrics it is not truly backwards but the kids love it because they end up saying cheeky things,
Example "Instead of saying Misse Tand (Cats tooth) it ends up as Tisse mand (Danish for Willy).

Yes, the Aussie was a soldier I met in North Korea.
Yes the kiddies love a chance to be cheeky and get away with it.
