Re: Latest Admiral
Getting back to the Shittyheart of it all, I found it interesting that the insertion of oi between the sh and the te produces Irish excrement
Is this because the dear folk of the emerald isle always exclaim OI when passing a motion?
I think all the horsemeat they eat will be bunging them up a bit and a stiff stool can, I suppose, bring on this utterance, as well as tears to the eyes.

I like that, much better than a plain old admiral of the white.

Enjoy your Rose, I hope her father sends her round regularly.
