Dandiprat & Twangling Jack!

February 21st 1761

"You Sir are a dandiprat and a twangling Jack!"

"Potbelly! Cudden! Fustilliarian!"

Mr. Tangle was screaming by this point...

"Goat-licker! Fopdoodle..."

Having imbibed a few too many measures of aqua vitae at the Angel we were what might be termed, 'potvaliant' as we staggered and swayed on our way homewards. 

With his tattered green frockcoat, flapping shoe-buckle and lurching wig, one might readily mistake him for a lowly drazel . To think that this same creature authored such ground-breaking papers as, "Notable Norfolke Knockers", "In Defence of Conquest Denial" and "Antiquarian Articles and Pernickerty Disputations"!  

We are over-cloyed indeed!
