Does he? now how would you be aknowing of that?!
Went on hols to Oirland once, in the summer, it rained almost every day and we burned all the peat in the place and had to buy more.
Not that we didn't enjoy the hol, we did, it's a great place.
Used to know a guy we nicknamed Pete the Heat as he always carried a Colt 45, auto, and I'm not talking the beer! Bloke in Lunnen. Dodgy, car dealer, camel hair coat and a minder everyone used to call "The dog". (things were simpler in the 70s!)
so you have both sorts of Pe(a)t(e) the heat!!!
(Han't thort of this bloke in decades!!)
