I thought he was referring to the sex question as to whether or not she swallows and the speed of such swallow. Shocked

..don't think so. Pretty sure there is a running gag in the film about swallows.
 
As I recall swifts and swallows aren't in the same taxological order - swallows more closer related to sparrows than they are to swifts... I've a feeling swifts are related to something really bizarre, like hummingbirds or something.

You are quite right Dean




But I never suggested that they were related in any way. As I know they are not.
