Well, already I'm having serious concerns about our new hogmaster. A week is shorter than a sennight, we've been robbed.

A sennight
A week

As I said, a week is shorter than a sennight.

jheem appears to be an existentialist. Come back Bishop Berkeley. All is forgiven, we found the money on the mantelpiece!

No, no, no. I am an adogmatic non-theist. I went to Berkeley, but I never lived in Bishop. I lived in Denio, and that was years before. The one-room schoolhouse was built from lumber milled from trees that never fell but which grew in Lakeview. £sd was not involved. Nor cosmonautical orange-flavored drink.

Is the hog coming out of the bath - or being thrown in the water?
