Sir Winston Churchill was known for his blunt manner of speaking. When he made a speech in Parliament, he kept referring to the "good manure" that needed to be used on the flowers.

Some society women complained to his wife, Clementine. "Couldn't you get the Winnie to say 'fertiliser'?" they asked.

Mrs. Churchill replied, "Heavens, no! It took me twenty-five years to get him to say 'manure.'
