>>We heard that as "gid miwning". At the time of the original run of the last season, we had offices under the bridge (literally - nice place, though, where the bridge extends into a square) and I was able to get my bicycle all the way to the office door. All nice and cute except my tyres, which were very unreliable, so I carried a hand pump. I'd lock the bike and take the pump with me... Crabtree style, raising it twice as a signal, while saying "gid miiuning". Ah, the times :).

>Nice to see you can spell "tyres", unlike the rest of your adopted countrymen.

I was speaking with an Australian in the same hour, so it may have been a reminder that for, ahem, international sagovorniks I should spell it so that FF3 underlines it :).

>And I say it's "Gid moaning"

To me "moaning" is pronounced the same as "morning" - with an o - while I heard a distinct i (not uy, but a short i) followed by a u (not a yoo and not an uh, but a short u)... can't remember any word where these two appear without an intervening y (as in reunite)... but imagine meeoow with both ee and oo shortened but still sounding the same. Again, this is how I remember the sound and we spelled it miuning back then.

Combined with coffee, this futile attempt to convey phonetic experience in English has completely woken me up :).
