A few years back I ventured into an Irish pub on the Gold Coast while on holidays. On entry to the bar, I noticed what looked like an old pirate with an eye patch at the bar drinking an ale. I asked the bartender about the old pirate, and he said he was known as "wooden eye". I asked if he had a wooden eye and the bartender said "you will find out soon enough". I sat with my drink and watched him and whenever a pretty young girl came into the bar he would stare at the girl and mutter "would'n I".
