Nah. My jokes are a bit less subtle than that. The post above about the Gherkins made me think of that Gurkin character who used to post on footymad. I confess he got under my skin sometimes. On one occasion we had a spat, and then he wrote "I can see our house from the West Stand!" I couldn't help replying that "you can't see Willerby from the West Stand", but of course, the intended humour might be lost on younger generations.
Seems reasonable to me to say if you love a city so much and you're going to go on about how much you love it then choose to live in it.
an argumentative git , but i was one of those that enjoyed his posts. didnt he disappear around the time of the Captan bollocks
Nah, he posts this regularly, for some bizarre reason he thinks the fact that I want to live in a village is a slur on my home town. He's just being an arsecunt.
No problem if you dont live here to say you love it. But if you say you love City and can come to watch City and dont well... But us City dwellers do look down on you inferior beings
Is it ok to say 'Pikey' then on here, I got hung out to dry for calling the Japanese ladies 'Japs'?! Double standards perhaps
I must have nearly bumped into Carmine then as I was in B&Q just after it happened As he said they coppers were properly tooled up. Although if the shooters managed to miss both people in a Golf they can't be that dangerous (apart from to anyone they're not trying to shoot!) Biggest problem was getting out of the ****ing carpark, took ages
It was Carmine that was tooled up. He was packin' his new screwdriver set tucked in his belt at the back. Nasty MoFo that Carmine giving out hard stares just near soft furnishings an'arl I heard.
Those two could frisk me anyday. Well back in those days. They have probably had therir faces and everything else rebuilt by now
A few years back, a couple of the local feral youth thought it would be fun to ride round on their moped pretending to be gangsters, waving a fake gun at people. The real guys turned up in the ARV , and shared the wheeze by laying him down and pointing a real gun at the 'ganster's' head, while the dog slavvered inches from his emptying bowels. I think the gentle humour approach the police took did the trick as I don't think they did it again.
That's maybe right. I suspect he appeared in several disguises. I'll tell you what Stick, I suspected he was Brian Marwood. But that Captain Whatsit stuff was the pits. It was so bad that John in Baton Rouge called him a "dirty little toe rag", and it took a lot to get John angry. One of Gurkin's favourite taunts was to say people were attention seekers. That was like waving a red flag at a bull for me, because if anyone was seeking attention it was you know who. Best not go on about him or he might resurrect himself.
