Well, Maggot's another enigma, I can say that; and he may be part of a dichotomy of sorts with Gaffer at the other side of the comparison (though they have a lot of similarities). Gaffer was really tough: standing up to that wraith and all, while Gaffer's opinions are like Proverbs with an Irish flair.
