Episode 25

🎼. Dum ti dum ti dum ti dum ...

Jim:  What is the matter with you these days, Jazzer ?  You are hanging around the house like a malodorous centurion who has lost 99 of his men.

Jazzer:  Well Ah’m still barred frae The Bull.  Lilian sez ma erse is well oot the windae !

Jim:  Oh that is bad news.  We must do something about this clear case of habeas corpus.

Jazzer:  Fit are ye spikkin’ aboot ?

(Ed.  He seems to have developed an Aberdonian accent.  NO-ONE understands that one.)

Jim:  We need to carpe diem.  Ars longa vita brevis  and all that.

Jazzer:  There’s nae need t’ get personal aboot ma bahookie, Lilian has already pit her fit up there.  And it wis sair Ah c’n tell ye.

Jim:  We must give her a taste of the Pax Romana !

Jazzer:  Guid idea.  Ah hud wan o’ thae pizzas in Borchester the other week.  It wis braw.

Jim:  It’s clear that the alea iacta est and we must fight this Boudicca of The Bull.  She must be defeated just as she was in AD60 !

Jazzer:  Ah’m still nane the wiser, Prof.  Ye seem t’ be goan on ad infinitum but it’s a’ Greek tae me !
