A gang of lascivious and lewd pigs

The latest family get together was excellent. To give you guys an idea of how an ordinary gentleman can be transformed into a vulgar wretch, my father's cousin the priest was even swearing up a storm (that's the priest who used to preach at St. Dunstan's for all of you churchgoers in Fredericton).
My cousin John's wife drove him up to the camp, took a quick glance at the pathetic crowd of drunks and rolled her eyes back in a gesture that demonstrated how happy she was to be of the female gender.
St-John was good, the house my grandmother grew up in is like a museum and her 88 year old sister looks absolutely fantastic.
The construction site is winding down. Someone there actually asked me if I was from England the other day. As if I have a British twang in my voice.
And I still don't understand the whole helmet thing. With the machines we use, if something hits us, we'll be left with a broken neck and a lifeless corpse, regardless of what we're wearing on our head.
