"He was a very valiant man who first adventured on eating of oysters." ~ James I (Thomas Fuller's "Worthies of England") "He was a bold man that first eat an oyster." ~ Jonathan Swift, listed as a cliché in "Polite Conversation" _____________________________________ "Poor Britons, there is some good in them after all -- they produced an oyster." Roman historian, when the Roman invaders discovered the natural oyster beds in East Anglia. () () East Anglia... I spent about a 1.5 years there... based in Norwich (near the east coast in England...) before moving on to London.
