"The statement about shells not fitting the guns you just made up Jim."

It was claimed that The Somme was going to be an "easy operation" made so by the prepared massive explosion.
We'll get round to the execution of the 16 Christian Yorkshiremen for sticking to their "Thou shall not kill" Christianity later - I'm sure you'll defend that with equal skill!

"Lions, donkeys" and, in your case, morons.
