I APOLOGISE WHOLEHEARTEDLY FOR WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SAY: If he was a vagabond waiter surely he was relying on his tips and that's why he's on this board!!! Bad I know - sorry (again) *hangs head in shame*

What does a lusty vagabond look like, because I wouldn't want to miss him?

Nooooooooo. I don't want a Common Vagabond. I want a Lusty Strolling Vagabond (well, I'm hoping he will stop strolling for a short time at least). But I wasn't planning to entertain him - I rather had it in mind that he might entertain me. Tina (peering up and down the road hopefully)

In Henry Fielding's 'Tom Jones', there's this line.... 'Mr. Nightingale here hath seen the officer himself, who is a very pretty gentleman, and hath told him all, and is very sorry for what he undertook, which he would never have done, had he known Mr. Jones to have been a gentleman; but he was told that he was a common strolling vagabond.'

Don't entertain that Lusty Strolling Vagabond or we will get Presented by the Plod.

Those vagabonds must have been well-fed to have the energy to be lusty!!

Can I be a lusty strolling vagabond? It sounds just up my street.

No, more's the pity. But if anyone finds one, please would they point him in my direction. Tina
