I know you’ve been searching for a Dinky Dau pin. Search no more:
Dinky Dau
The intel on the word Dinky Dau:
Crazy or crazy in the head. Derived from half French half Vietnamese. Boocoo (Beaucoup) Dien cai dau (Crazy, or literally “crazy head”).
A phrase used by Vietnamese street vendors to American GI’s to suggest that GI’s bargaining offer is crazy. Before Americans stepped onto Vietnamese soil the French were there for around 150 years so their influence can be seen.
No need to say thank you. . .
Finally! I can sleep again.
Now – where do I get a “You numbah Effing Ten, GI!” pin?
You numbah one! I could see the kid from the Temple of Doom saying that. (Hmm, his name is Short Round, played by Ke Huy Quan.)

England 38. Scotland 18.
If Scotland had played as hard as these ‘wee laddies’ partied; then we would have been in a spot of bother.
