And.........

THE BILGE RAT

the bilge is the part of a ship below the floor boards of the bottom level, just above the hull... ie the darkest and most grim part of the boat. a rat is, well, a small annoying (and to some people, scary) rodent. Therefore the term "bilge rat" is a pirate insult.

Don't bring me into it.. please. Apart from an odd dig, have decided to devote my whole and undivided attention to more important matters in life.

Yeah, yeah... I hold my hands up.. it was childish... but... in my defence.. I put it "out of site"... (Googlers? What can you do? )... rather than vent my spleen on Codders in public.... I'm trying to behave... Honest, I am....
