    That last line is very telling, the Manx moron must really LOVE the English language. I herd that Leo Abse took pity on him and got him released, not knowing that the Manx moron was having the time of his life in the Scrubs. He got "brownie points" for being the cleanest but clumsiest prisoner, he was forever dropping the soap in the showers and saying "I'm freeeeeee"

    The Queen's ex-butler would do well to read the sorry tale of Cardinal Pell, and encourage his friend Dave to do the same.
