Oh dear! I'm sure you can get some kind cream to rub on that that will get rid of it!

I wear my deformities, of which there are many, with pride, thank you very much. It's what makes me unique...

... a sort-of Australian "Elephant man" presumably you enjoy beer and would be rather called "Kangaroo Man" so the large pouch can hold even more beer? Do you also have big feet as well...poor chap, must be terrible to be Australian!

Yes, I have seen some grotesque paunches in some unfortunate individuals, but entry to said paunches is through the oesophagus and is therefore not a pouch in the marsupial sense of the word. Beer is normally carried externally in an 'Esky' which keeps the beer cold and has an additonal benefit of providing coccial support when at football matches.

I'm thinking of composing a work called 24-7, based on the whining noises which
continually seem to emanate from the mouths of the Scottish, Welsh, and Irish people
about the English, despite the fact that they've chosen to live here (and nick our jobs).
Let's re-build Hadrian's Wall and Offa's Dyke - that's what I say. (Maybe big fences
round Merseyside, Yorkshire, and Cornwall might also be useful!)

I'm Irish, but most of my extended family come from England, so I hope we don't complain too much!

... everyone likes a good old whine sometimes and anyway, I'm sure there's room for improvement amongst
all these nationalities

Don't anyone be fooled by my location. But for better or worse, this may be permanent.

My previous message in this thread was, of course, not to be taken seriously.
Here's another offering from possibly the only member of Percy Elliott's fan club in the world.
Again, there's tiny error:-
In bar10 on page1, the middle C acciaccatura (big word for small note) should be sharpened -
causing it to be middle C no longer.

Thank you 4c for your thank you. Any response is always very welcome, even if it's negative.
Talking of responses, this piece by Elliott (She to Him) is a response to his own previous piece,
A Toi (To You), which I posted ages ago, and currently lurking somewhere in the archive section.
