2. age (old)
3. opinion (ugly)
4. colour (red),
5. material (leather)
6. origin (american)
7. purpose (riding).
so it's probably going to be "Oh my bloody motherfucking God" just like you'd say "big, old, ugly, red brick house" :)
order of adjectives is one of the hardest things to learn in a foreign language i think.

Thanks, Racehorse! I'm always struggling with sentence structure, I didn't even know such an official order existed! So I copied and pasted your response into a word document, to refer back to at any time I need...
