Oooh oooh is it a bit of the Seafarer or the Wanderer, or Beoweulf or maybe my faveourite the Dream of the Rood ...

Hwæt! Ic swefna cyst secgan wylle,

"Listen, I will recount the best of dreams,
which I dreamed in the middle of the night,
after speech-bearers turned to rest.
It seemed to me that I saw a most wondrous tree" (Just in case!)

Just that hilarious but incredibly foul-mouthed (yet still hilarious, hehe!) squirrel things that one of my lads is always recommending me!!!

So WISH we could say some of that sometimes though!!!
