Can I just point out that the “ooh err” in the above was inserted by Laura Rawlings in a frankly desperate attempt to lower the tone of my blog entry.
Everyone knows that when confronted with a potential double entendre Laura goes “Ooh Err”, Albert goes “Phwoar” and I go “Oh, I say”
Damn, I thought “phwoar” was the preserve of yours truly. I love the word “pwoar!”
