Berty big bollocks.

Find it here.

Personally, I think "bertie" is connected with being crazy, not quite right in the head and the like.

Thanks for your advice. If you have time, why don't you watch the vid clip called "This is Perth!" on YouTube. You'll run into those 2 expressions somewhere half way.
