More bullyragging from the bard!

Re: "Inclusive approach needed to tackle nuclear threat," Letters, March 9.
I always read the letters from “No Holds Bard” Charles Frederickson with great anticipation, because I am eager to know how long it will take him to use his signature adjective, “bullyrag”.
Sure enough, “bullyrag” popped up in the very first paragraph of his latest screed. In fact, it took him only 21 words to get to it.
I had never heard of this word until I encountered it in the epistles of the Holdless Bard. I looked it up in the dictionary (it means to bully, especially by cruel practical jokes), and I thank him for enriching my vocabulary.
Let’s have more bullyrag letters from this talented (if somewhat florid) wordsmith.
