Why thankee Sir, good job my chest is broad and my back strong to hold up all that tin. Lady Glamorgan has hired an extra maid to polish all the silverware.Where would I be without that woman?

Perdition I expect, possibly worse

You wear all that tin like a suit of armor good sir, surely your gravity must attract many a musket ball.

Congratulations are due of course, for your ostentatious presentation of finery. A dink good sir. I have my reward metal where the surgeon left it, those are all we French require to remember our victory. Fragments of the battle, deep inside...

Indeed, some of that metal is of your doing, and so I offer a toast to a tough opponent.

I'm playing against Mike right now.

Should I be concerned about playing against such a highly decorated officer? :frenchsad:

Drinks are usually on me, well by the end of the night at least.

Can never get those red wine stains out. :frenchdrunk:
