Johnnie Essex said:
You painted your boat bright green and rose madder
Your emulsional smile greeted me from your ladder,
Then downstream we journeyed to find a swift half
In Oxford's best pub The Spanner and Calf.

Isisbridge replied:
The Spanner and Calf? Are you having a laugh?
No pub of that name in Oxford's domain.
The Anchor and Plough will serve you right now.
The Perch or the Trout, if you fancy a stout.
