Mesh (netting) - "mess" (dining room, as Sean Connery would say it...)
Sean Connery has an Edinburgh accent, which makes him pronounce some syllables in an unusual manner. If you pronounce 'mesh' as 'mess', you get a word that means a dining room in a military place.

thanks,
As someone who lives close to Edinburgh, i think Connery's pronunciation is more due to a slight lisp rather than any geography
