...about your use of the word 'pishy' might not be strictly true. But novo likes to take the moral high ground.

Och well, it was only meant to be a wee bit offensive

Well...you might have seen an exchange elsewhere.

I sais his viwes were "Tosh! (btw - 'tosh' was not my first choice of word")

He sais "Did you mean 'bollocks'?"

I said "No - 'Shite!'"

Thereafter he had the moral high ground, I was insulting and therefore had nothing useful to say.

Fair do's, though - a valuable lesson in getting one's point across. Although he wouldn't last a second in yer average Glasgow boozer conversation...

I did see that. I kinda like Novo, even if I think he comes out with a lot of p.. tosh. He's very old-fashioned in the way that the words must be nice even when the sentiment isn't.

Although (sir! sir!) he said 'bullshit' a few days ago. I must've provoked him into it.
