Cock-a-doodle-do

"What's tavas in English?"
"Peacock"
"What?"
Evil twinkle twinkles in eye...
"BigCock"
"BigCock?"
"Yes..."
[ shouts to junior ] "Junior, look at that BigCock over there. Isn't he beautiful?"

After saying BigCock three times, I think it slowly dawned on mrs. anglosaxy...anyway my hysterics sure gave the game away. OK, I got a slap, but it was worth it. We occasionally rib each other with our language errors but this was a classic!
