There was an old hero called Ajax
who certainly lived life to the max
His fighting was mythic
His muscles terrythic
From the years he'd spent building haystacks.


Now they're gunning for poor old Brock

Back to Mobson's.

There's nothing to beat a good pub
That serves real ale and great grub
Great pies with some sauce

[Although we ate at various British pubs, one stood out. It was a bit outside Sheffield - Dungworth and specialised in pies and had two big dogs underneath our table. I don't that would be allowed in NZ. Pies aren't quite as ubiquitous in Britain as they are in NZ, where a pie is the usual workman's lunch.]
