So. You lot who've changed your names to Sheik el Malarky or whatever, how's the change of lifestyle going?
The food must be better, all spiced up with pepper, ginger, cloves, cinnamon v what? parsley?
Lemons, melons & peaches v Granny Smiths
Dates v Raisins
Pork Roast v Stuffed Lamb
Hearty Ale v Tea and Zukkar
Barley v Rice
Damascus Steel v Sheffield Steel
Muslin v Linen
Saladin v Richard
Holy Land v Hollyhead
Caliph v Pope
On your knees 4 times a day v morning prayers
Friday's off v Sunday rest
Robes v shirt and trousers
Public baths v a dunk in the village pond.
For the civil things in life Moslem civilization had us beat.
