My secret Latin advisor is an excellent fellow, of infinite jest. He is also an adept woodworker, a hi-fi-buff, plays the church organ, has experience show-jumping, and commands an apparently endless list of fascinating facts, curios and snippets of information.

For example: The McGurk Effect (let me Google that for you).

Everybody should have a secret Latin advisor like this.

We are pleased to announce the addition of a new secret Latin adviser to the panel — also a chap of refinement, jest and exasperation at the ways of salespeople. More are always welcome, as are secret German advisors, for — as you will see— the Jolly Contrarian is a fan of inventing foreign aphorisms, but he isn’t skilled in them.
