Words were a fascination for Roger, and he used to sit in his tank, just thinking about words. If there were a pause in the conversation he would look at you and ask some such question ass "Do you happen to know what 'transubtantiation' is？ "If you said you knew, he was very cast down, because he wanted to tell you.
One of his regular visitors was the government officer who went by every six months. Roger would ask him if he knew what a word meant, and then he would have to admit that he didn't and Roger would be every pleased with himself. Taz, as his name was, got very fed up with this.
So, on one occasion, before he went, he spent an evening with the Oxford English Dictionary. He rode in, tied up his horse and went in to see Roger, and Roger said, "Do you happen to know what an 'embolism' is？' and Taz said; "No, I bloody don't." Then Taz asked him" Do you happen to know what a 'letoard' is？" Roger, was upset to be asked a question. He said: SA leotard？ I think I saw the skin of one once. "And Taz said: "You bloody didn't. "SO Roger said: "Well, what is a leotard？' Taz said: "Urn not going to bloody tell you. ' He got on his horse and rode off and went to sleep in the desert five miles away.
Some time later he was suddenly woken up by a steely grasp on his coat. Hands picked him up bodily from the ground and held him in the air and shook him. He opened his eyes and it was Roger with his eyes glinting in the moonlight, staring at him and saying: "What’s a bloody leotard？"
