Oh skully, I've never known lardy be so pissed off with someone. I had to google some of the words he used.

Aye, qmy. Top bloke and unlikely to be phased. Seemed quite excited about the festivities when I spoke with him earlier today. Good luck and best wishes to him.

Indeed JKL. lardy and I aren't too far apart, but he has a growth ring or two on me.

oddly enough i have always thought of skully as being one of the older statesmen in this place...had thought him closer to 60 than 50...that aside agree with his obvious statement about lardy being a top bloke
