if can't resist the individual letters and numbers (eg in halfords, B&Q or Homebase) then draw a line in pencil first, to minimise wibbly wobbliness.

Patent application

TCM, that was unadulterated plagerism of my phrase.

I want to patent 'wibbly wobbliness'

licenses for use are available at cost.

Re: Patent application - Rejected

Wibble - Already accepted as a verb "To Wibble" - what most electronic devices do just when you need them the most.

Wobble - To suddenly realise that you might have backed the wrong horse, or misjudged the feelings of the voters.

Sorry "coolest of men" (I liked it) patent request rejected. Sayings are public domain.

IMHO & FWIW, NWGOI.

Correction re \"wibble\" : Roger Irrelevant

My gad Barry, the air raid warning has gone off, and I have to collect a goldfish from the dry cleaners, wibble. Wibble is what Roger Irrelevant (from Viz) says.

However, Wibbly Wobby (all rights and patents recognised) denotes what happens to sticky on lettering or numbers on back of boats when badly applied, and I regret not acknowledging Burgundyben's trademark.

A printer's shop in Birmingham did my transfer for the stern for £1.00 last week. I gave him the details as received from the reg. office. They're good and the correct size and font too.
Send me your details and I'll get it done for you.

Re: Patent application - Plagiarism

Ah but the Wibbly Wobbly Way was a phrase used in a kiddies TV programme probably late 60's, always said by Auntie Jean.

Anyone remember it and identify it?

World WIde web is known in our household as the Wibby Wobbly Way, so you can't patent it 'cos you knicked it.
