If this is an American site shown in this link, I'm amazed that the term 'tripe-hound' has been used; the yanks will have no concept of this term! [it's all education, I suppose...]

Reminds me of the time the Americans used the term: ' IT'S MINGIN!' in an advertising campaign for an animated film......they actually misinterpreted this term as being positive hyperbole, [like; 'it's ZINGIN'!!'] and not an insult!

The names Beanotown and Beano Productions won't mean anything to Americans either... they don't sell The Beano there.
