pip pip
Tally-ho's cousin
Pip pip is a British exclamation of farewell or cheerful greeting, now old-fashioned and somewhat theatrical: Pip pip, old chap!
It evokes upper-class British speech from the early twentieth century and today appears mostly in humorous or ironic contexts, often alongside other dated expressions like "cheerio" or "tally-ho."
