'Nah-pooh' is in the lyrics to that song 'Good-byee', isn't it? "Bonsoir old thing, cheerio, chin-chin; nah-poo, toodle-oo, good-byee..."

From a nurse's account of life there - www.scarletfinders.co.uk/153.html
There was one General and two Stationary Hospitals at Genoa. The first in a large hotel, the others in schools. Two of them already had patients and the other was being put in order. As there was no heating in the hotel, the building was intensely cold; it was, however, a very fine hotel with a marble staircase and beautiful baths, though at the time the baths were of little use, as there was no hot water. In the schools were some stoves which the patients thoroughly enjoyed. Later on we had an Infectious Hospital at Genoa, also a very nice hostel for sisters coming from the United Kingdom or moving about the country.
British motorcycle despatch riders (LOC)

Pixel Wrangler said:
From Wikipedia: "A despatch rider is a military messenger, mounted on horse or motorcycle. "Despatch riders were used by armed forces to deliver urgent orders and messages between headquarters and military units. They had a vital role at a time when telecommunications were limited and insecure. In the British Army, motorcycle despatch riders were first used in the World War I by the Royal Engineers Signal Service. The riders were originally volunteers, some of whom supplied their own machines."
