There is an element of truth to it, but frankly I think he's just soft. Even softer than Australians who wear thermals in 'winter'. He should give up cycling and take up something easy like cake decoration.

Indeed, its quite Hemingwayesque, or rendolent of Phillip Roth in his less self-indulgent days. :lol:

I think he teaches English for an income, hence the lovely vernacular, soliloquy and use of smart words.

Some might call it overly verbose though. :mrgreen:

In all seriousness, he is a top lad.
