Yes, but why would they be standing on a mountain of sugar.
He is possibly referring to things being black and white, but even a priest dressed in black on mountain of sugar would be difficult to spot and could easily be mistaken for a goat.
I assume whoever said it is using it as an example of someone not being able to see a distinctly black object despite it being surrounded by a mass of white.
If you can't see the priest on a mountain of sugar maybe he is dressed in white which means he must be the Pope (but surely his red slippers would give him away)?
Alternatively it could be unrefined brown sugar and he might be a Franciscan monk?
Aaaah. A Belgian monk! They are responsible for some very fine beers indeed. I have to admit to being particularly partial to some of the abbey brewed fruit beers - cherry in particular. That would explain the sugar of course and having quaffed a few extra strong beers one could be forgiven somewhat deficient oral discernment.
He's great. Came to England, won the European cup in the best european final ever, pissed off Ferguson and Fat Sam and now he's gone Italiano cryptic. What's not to like?
standing on large piles or mountains of sugar is not to be recommended,the reason that hodge can't see the priest is because he has sunk and suffocated,making him a dead or ex-priest.
it is foolish and irresponsible of mr .benitez to suggest that members of the clergy , belgian , fransiscan or otherwise , could or should stand on such mountains even when/if lowered by helicopter.
Its a well known FACT that France is stockpiling supplies of EU sugar to drive up the price - there is a sugar mountain the size of Vesuvius just outside the bus depot in Lens. I think its pretty poor form to be banding quips about sugar mountains around when we are about to be hit by the most serious sugar shortage since WW2, when Hitler bombed Tate & Lyle into oblivion and we ended up using SYRUP in our tea for six years.
