The OED wont take someone's opinion on the original source, Elle. It will have to be verifiable before they publish.

Oh, I see - so it could possibly be in '"Educating Archie" then.....but the reference isnt' in MY Brewers - I told you it was a very old one!
Well, in my defence Kenyatta is usually ' having a go' - or at least he has done in the past - anyway, I've apologised if I misread him!

Elle, I still have no idea what Kenyatta was talking about. His cryptic message was confusing and I googled small faces and found the top result was "all or nothing" I apologized for the joke I made.
Rusty, you are so lucky to live so near to that beautiful waterfall. The only ones I have seen are abroad, Japan and Yosemite in USA.

How far away from the waterfall do you live, Rusty?
It says the fall is in Angus...where is that?

Re the OED enquiry, I liked a show some years ago, where viewers were asked to submit verification of the origin of words. Presented by Victoria Coren "Balderdash and Piffle" I think was the show. They should bring that back

Several good ones near us (Yorkshire Dales), jazzy. The Ingleton Waterfalls walk is nationally famous.
