He was probably one of these people who change their English names to Irish ones. The sort who are actually called Bill Smith, but style themselves Liam Mac an Ghabhain* or whatever.

*I'm sure sw will correct my spelling here. Although I find the notion of spelling in Irish a rather droll one.

I would not have expected the "an" to be there but who knows.

You only ever really learned your own name for the oral exams.

Well, say what you will of Jorge, if I ever found myself in the dock accused of crimes I had not committed, I'd want as many Jorges on the jury as possible. I fear you b, and Sir C, would simply want me locked up asap so you could go for a long lunch.

I would take my role as juror very seriously. I'd look carefully at the evidence, weigh all the probabilities and then, when you opened your mouth and revealed your social class, I would decide you were guilty.

[Viva Prat Vegas]

Ditto if you were guilty as sin Herbert !

Sir C has already done jury service
Kept nodding off for 40 winks
:snooze:

Worth remembering all the same that for every Sgt Peppers or Rubber Soul or Revolver there is The Frog Chorus.

Don't forget Imagine, a disingenuous, saccharine dirge. Imagine no possessions? It's easy if you've got a garage full of Rolls Royces John.

It's easy if you try H.

I'd have shot him just for shítting that disingenuous turd of a song into the world.

He actually acquitted some people. I'm not sure I've forgiven him yet.

Well 'bhan' means 'woman'. As in 'bhan sidhe' or banshee, which just means 'woman spirit/ghost'. And as in the Shan Van Vocht or 'Poor Old Woman' meant to represent Ireland.
