- Angela Lamb notes:
- 'Maybe this doesn't translate to American? ;-) Buzz is obvious. Cocks doesn't mean... It just means like guys, except it's a little bit arch if you know what I mean. Posey maybe. An affected way of putting things for effect.'
Change names to Shelley and Devoto. I believe "Shelley" was the name Pete's parents were to have used had he been born female.
- Alan Wilson notes:
- 'My wife and her family are all Manchester-based and it was quite a common expression around that area for young men to be called "cock", not in a trendy poseur sort of way, but rather as an old dialectical idiom, common among older people in particular (her dad used it regularly).'

- Pete Shelley notes:
- 'Devoto was the name of a Cambridge bus driver recounted in a story told after dinner by a philosophy tutor. Howard found the name so amusing that he laughed!'
