Only 74 I'm afraid.

Here's one of his famous quotes:

"Line dancing is as sinful as any other type of dancing, with its sexual gestures and touching. It is an incitement to lust."

Is he not in the Lords now?

Okay. The gentleman in question once stood up in the European Parliament whilst the Pope was addressing the members, and shouted "You are the Antichrist" repeatedly until he was forcibly removed.

uh?

arthur scargill?

Not an MP.

I could quote this guy all day... btw, even though he is in his 80s, he is still head of a political party, an MP, a National Assembly member, head of a church AND a church minster. He only recently left the European Parliament.

"We are not prepared to stand idly by and be murdered in our beds."

"Save Ulster from sodomy!"

Can you guess who it is yet?

I bloody love monkey island pirate fighting insults. I can't remember this one. Was going to say 'how appropriate, you fight like w cow', but that is the retort to 'you fight like a dairy farmer'. Someone!

Matt B wins, the retorts were multifunctional depending on whether you were fighting wandering pirates of the swordmaster.
all yours

I was over there this summer, and if I rightly recall, there aren't very many of them...

14?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Sep 28, 2007 10:54 am

In the right ballpark, but the wrong number chaps
