I love that three of those lines end in "-ood" words, and in modern usage, none of them rhymes with any of the others. English! The language of kings. :)
Also, today's fun fact: in Napoleonic times, Englishmen were so renowned for their devotion to roast beef that it was one of the frenemy nicknames the French had for them: les rosbifs.
Today, as a celebration for my posting,I have heard that Japanese cuisine is delicious.Sushi... sukiyaki... tempura... fufu... oh, I can't wait.What should we do, Admiral? She looks like she's really on tenterhooks there...I thought it'd be best if I had her home country, England's, food...So I got Nakau's roast beef bowl all ready to go...Ah.. well... my thoughtfulness may have backfired...it seems that the Admiral is treating me to a meal.
