  Your Grace you will be aware of the passage in the good book where the Messiah arrives at the venue for the last supper and sees a load of Chinese takeaway piled upon the table. He exclaims that he can't afford to pay for it but a disciple comes back with "not a problem master, Judas has come into some money."

  I wasn't aware - it must have been omitted from my Vulgate. Thanks for the heads up.
  
  Another line for the "What did the Romans ever do from us?" perhaps: Well you couldn't get a decent Dim Sum in Jericho before the Romans invaded.

  We get "wrong candidate" all the time that is why so many complain.
