hornet, 'cept it's got a green arse 'stead of yellow." "Well, I'll have
Bert tie me up a few," said Bill. "A Green-assed Hornet, huh?" "Yep,

young Shadrack here is somewhat familiar with the Dungarvon Whooper."
"Really!" Shadrack leaned back on the sofa, put his arm on the back,
crossed his legs and made ready for whatever lies he might have to
