Be careful what you say

I have just seen Gianetta use the word `basta`. I remember being in Italy with a group who spoke no Italian and we were clearly being ripped off. I got to the point were I said basta(enough)-some thought I was swearing

Hi

Spike Milligan wrote a funny tale in his book.Hitler, my part in his Downfall.

Whilst in Italy he was making love to a young lady who kept saying basta.

He misunderstood and thought she meant faster.

There used to be a jockey called Michael Bastard, but the commentators always pronounced it Michael Bast---Ard, something like that but never as it was spelt.
