2 curate's egg
«Яйцо викария». Эта фраза стала почти пословицей. Она одна из крылатых фраз, которыми британский юмористический журнал «Панч» обогатил английский язык. Слова взяты из диалога к карикатуре, появившейся в 1895 г. и изображавшей молодого робкого викария, завтракающего у своего епископа: «Боюсь, вам досталось протухшее яйцо, мистер Джонс». — «О нет, Ваше преосвященство, уверяю вас. Некоторые его части просто замечательны». Если какое-либо событие (концерт, путешествие в Россию, обед с друзьями) было не совсем удачным, можно сказать, что оно было a bit like the curate's egg, т. е. частично хорошее. -
