Oh shit, I shout,
Floyd has died!
Pickled, no doubt,
Or stir and fried.
What a start!
This pommy cook
Was all heart.
He had what it took -
Wine in one hand,
The other a fish -
Had no plan -
Out came a dish
Fit for a king.
Cheeky as sauce,
Wit was his thing:
It was his main course.

Well, look on the bright side old boy. You're doing better than Floyd!
Your description of what words can't describe reminded me vividly of the sensation one has with two ureteric stents in situ (touch wood)!!
