Without whishing to appear excessively pedantic (heaven forfend!), the word should really be wispy, without the intrusive "h"...

For example, "will o' the wisp".

OK, I've fixed the title of the original post. Now you have persuade everybody else to similarly edit their replies.

Yes, I read that too.
I suspect it means that "whispy" should be written "wispy".
But who can tell with such an authoritative source? <chortle!> :laugh:

So you edited the title of your reply to confound this thread with the one about the brown river water that may or may not be beer?

Not a problem really as the water going over this water fall joins the river that features in that other thread.

No, Geoff posted in the free beer thread by accident, and I moved his post and John's reply to this thread, without changing the topic of their posts...
