SHABBA

Exactly. I wish it were more socially acceptable for an adult to shout "Shabba!" at random intervals throughout the working day, but these days I just have to think it and enjoy it quietly to myself.

About 30 years ago, I was told off in French class with the line:

"Shabba bien merci is neither funny nor correct French, Fakeman"
