Re: Starter motors - difference between car and bike ones

Really? How old is he?

 



He's a young punk, no more than 55 years old, and he's been playing
"The Older Gentleman" role for at least ten years.

A police officer once referred to him as "the older gentleman" when
arresting him and a pack of his friends, so he adopted that as a
reactionary nickname to ridicule authority.

There's a picture of the flabby, out of shape Neil Murray here:

He always was a duffer (British version of couch potato).

So what if he has to wear a suit and behave himself in public? Any
time he chats with his Limey pals he turns into a smart-mouthed
Cockney.

But then wtf do I know, I'm a Canuck (and just *think* I speak

If I went to Australia and announced that I was a duffer I'd prolly
get busted -- down there it means "cattle thief" (or so sez W'pedia).

No it is not but you are at least correct in describing him as a one, a
title of which he is rightfully proud.
