Banter
A supple term used to describe activities or chat that is playful, intelligent and original. Banter is something you either posses or lack, there is no middle ground. It is also something inherently English, stemming as it does from traditional hi-jinks and tomfoolery of British yesteryear.
"You, sir, are drunk"
"Maybe so but you are ugly and I will be sober in the morning"
"Good banter sir"
is this all what jon said to you ??

Hi Guys
It was certainly addressed to one 'specific' area should we say. And in this instance it wasnt Bessie Braddock. Although I do believe something very similar was attributed!
Always firm, always true, always impartial...

LA - Sir you are drunk
WC - Lady you are ugly.
(pause)
WC - In the morning, I will be sober.
However, Wikipedia confirms it is Bessie Braddock...
