I quite like being called ‘wench’; there’s something rather Black Adderish about it.
thanks Max
I’m pleased to hear you got something good out of it at least.RATM

I was very annoyed about that but credit to them for bringing it off…
dreadful song, never heard of it but I don’t suppose ‘Cheltenham’ would have set the world alight…Anonymity is fine. If I changed my name to ‘Loretta Salino’ you’d be none the wiser unless you’ve seen ‘The Sting’ about 50 times, and what I like most about forums, especially here in the Lounge is that you can find out not only how much people
do
know but just as interestingly how much they, or I,
do not
know.

…as I know you always doParticularly as this involves uncommon words, it is correct to retain the e, to help people recognise the word, and also pronounce it.
Close to fifty viewings, Mrs Mare. Those friendly con artists on "Hustle" paid homage to the great film last year too.
Though a man of even temperament and liberal credentials, I would possibly
stalk
a poster called Loretta Salino…and get myself banned LOL.
Moe, wench does have Adderish tones, but I much prefer the Georgian "strumpet" or the Pythonesque, "bint", as in "I mean, if I went around sayin’ I was empereror just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me they’d put me away!
…a stalker.. – now that would be worth looking in to see…Poised, seductive and without glamour by today’s standards, I love Salino. Short lived but beautifully woven into it and a severe shock for the novice viewer.

"Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!!" etc. etc.
"Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help! Help! I’m being repressed!"
"Bloody peasants!!!"
"Did you hear that?!?!? Oooh, what a giveaway!"
etc.
