In my peripheral vision the sidebar read something like "A desperate group of women charged with embarrassing knickers in the Cathedral"

^That did make me laugh but the pedant in me has to point out that Thin Lizzy sing 'Whack for my daddy-o'. What does it mean? Well, it's a ye olde tune and here are the older even sillier lyrics:

As I was going over the far-famed Kerry Mountains
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
Saying "Stand and deliver for you are my bold deceiver"
With your whack fol the diddle day
Whack fol the diddle oh whack fol the diddle
Oh, there's whiskey in the jar.
