That reminds me of of an old mate who had been a matelot on HMS Vanguard in the fifties. The Queen was aboard for some reason or other and an enterprising young sailor managed to get hold of a royal jobbie.
Dried out, varnished and mounted on a mahogany plaque, it became a conversation piece.
It goes to show that sometimes you *can* polish a turd...

I laboriously worked out the "Greedy blue Scots thieves" and the "Blue noses" but beg to suggest that "Lex Salmonum" would have been an improvement on "Sandy Salmond" which, as a pun, was distinctly groanworthy!
And all for ONLY £5 English. Amazing!
