'pish!' and 'tosh!' It is not two expressions but two halves of one. The correct expression form is "Pish-tosh" and is a double insult consisting of an expletive coupled with an offensive racist insult. Did you mean your expression in its true interpretation, as it has been broadcast on TARBOARD in the public domain.

As to your statement before the offensive comment you are inaccurate in every respect. The idea of Beckfoot having an Estate was around before I joined TARS. A Horse and Carriage is mentioned in the text, as you are fully aware. I made no mention of the Blacketts being Stinking Rich, that was your comment. As for Nancy being Groomed to Hunt, the hunt is immaterial it is the social connections associated with it, as I said and which you did not dispute.

You are entitled to your opinion, of course, and please carry on carrying on, but I was not so rude as to cry QUOTE 'pish!' and 'tosh! UNQUOTE at somebody else.
