    Clearly, the Crikey bunker has been overrun
    and the survivors are busily licking Mat Preston’s boots.
    (Cough….. gag……. splutter!!!)
    Instead of pissing on his trouser leg like they should.
    But I digress…….
    Where can I purchase one of those “Mankini” thingies? :-)

    Perhaps McCain’s will start to sell snap-frozen bags of baby cravats for our consumption?

    I hate to be a pedant, but I think that thing on Captain Oates’ shoulder is actually a jabot.

    I think the jabot-spotting is correct.
