maybe, I am leaning toward the shake and bake but trying to think of the best way to fit it all in, whether to use , or - in it as well.
One last review before I change it this weekend...... A quick history lesson for all....
Bluff City
Downtown Memphis sits on a bluff that overlooks the Mississippi River (which is why one of its nicknames is "Bluff City"). Now that we all drive around in cars, it can be easy to miss this point, but if you go to downtown Memphis and look for it, you can still make out the bluff. This land contained several signs of human civilization over the years. First it was a Native American village called Chucalissa. Then it contained a French fort called Fort Assumption. Next came a Spanish fort called San Fernando de las Barrancas.
In fact, from about 1750 until 1820 there were all sorts of disputes about who actually owned the land on which Memphis stands. Back then all of West Tennessee was generally considered Chickasaw territory, but that didn’t stop some Europeans from claiming that they owned part of it. In 1783, the government of the state of North Carolina “opened” what it claimed as its “western territory” to settlement, which means that it started selling land that it claimed to own as far west as the Mississippi River. A man named John Rice bought 5,000 acres (what is now downtown Memphis ) for 50 cents an acre.
However, John Rice was later killed in an attack by Native Americans, and his brother later sold the land to Nashville lawyer John Overton for only 10 cents an acre. But Overton did nothing with the land until 1818, when the American government “purchased” all of what is now West Tennessee from the Chickasaw Indian Nation. Immediately thereafter, Overton partnered with two of his friends (James Winchester and General Andrew Jackson). They sent surveyors down to start laying out a town on John Rice’s old land and named it Memphis, after a city in ancient Egypt. Today you can still dig up old newspapers from 1820 that advertise the original sale of town lots in Memphis.

If I have shake, I want the bake but I don't know how to fit it in quite yet.

I know you weren't having a dig when i saw 'apostrophee'.
Apostrophe then, was only 1 letter out. At least I hadn't put "are'nt" instead of "aren't"
How about...Bring Rafa Back?
We could make a team.
Bluff Back Rafa....................
Broke Back Bluff...
Can't go that route although it has a nice ring to it, is about cowboys, but just.... well.......gay
Probably one of the reasons why FSG supposedly said they wont bring him back. Although I don't think it would be such an issue as our current owners aren't relying on loan money.
or put together the best midfield in the world
Then offer the super glue that held the best midfield around the world just so you could fund Gareth "Blu-tack" Barry's arrival.
Don't see it myself. He's done it at Valencia, Liverpool and Inter. There is surely a pattern there?
or obsolete Bluff.
Shake'N'Bake Bluff
Cowboy the **** up Bluff
