Yeah, I know. But, I've always been too kind-hearted for my own good, so thought I'd let them off light and ditch the usual 4 x 2 foreplay stuff.

Just my 2 cents. :)
A bit extreme in my view. Change that to "and kick them in the hind quarters" and I think we'll be in agreement.

That would not do much good but a "kick in the crotch"....maybe that would?
Just MPO, of course.

LIMPET235 is Australian.

In British English both terms exist, but in this context then crutch would be the usual one used.

Thanks for that info., Frank... :)
Not that I'd want to pick on anyone with a temporary disability, (eg; broken leg or such), but a kick to the crutch may just have been effective.

What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.
