A very very nice man.

Won't have a word said against him.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who went on historical walks,
but when he goes to town,
the police take him down,
to the station for one of those talks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
what he does with paint,
can make strong women faint,
and the rest of us all look like dorks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
he thought to go farther
so went to the Sahara
in a hat that was covered in corks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
but he has a passion,
he thinks he's in fashion
in a short dress that used to be Bjorks.

Unfortunately  for you the clocks went back, so you got one hour twice.  Waste of an  hour on your part, you  should be more careful.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
the gamers he beats
are chained to their seats
and their livers are plucked out by hawks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
he is so wise,
he covers his eyes
when painting an Amazon's nawks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
he thinks he's a bobby,
but it's more of a hobby
- outlining corpses with chalks

I was going from Urban Dictionary.com. Is it an Americanism? If so, I apologise.  :-[

I had thought it was Australian, although widely used by Hugh Dennis in his impressions of the Duke of Edinburgh.   :-\

I have a theory about the Leadbetters.

Most of the time Margot was, well, Margot... BUT Every few weeks Jerry would come home from work on a Friday, and she would be waiting in one of those frilly/fluffy baby-dolls/etc that were 'sexy' in the 70s.  She would grab his tie and drag him upstairs to the bedroom, and he would emerge Monday morning an exhausted and broken man.
