    Good morning to you Liverpool fans.
    As you will be visiting my team (Norwich), I thought I would post something here for you that might help make your visit to Norfolk easier for you <laugh>

    Notes of Interest.

    It is only necessary to produce this passport if challenged OR traveling in the county of Norfolk. They (the locals) only object to furriners (you) coming into their domain and NOT leaving it. In fact they have been known to assist vacating holiday – makers and visiting football fans with a pitch fork or well aimed turnip.
    If, as an immigrant, you may have purchased an illegal Norfolk passport on the black market, you have obviously not been residing in the county for the statutory 38 years.
    Beware if any locals pretend to accept you after 20 years, as this will certainly be a bluff and normally happens in a public house when you are buying a round. So, do not be fooled, they are not as slow as they make out. Indeed, they have a saying:- ‘Yow ken allus tell a Norfick bor, but yow keernt tell im much’


    USEFUL PHRASES:

    Good morning: Ar ya orrite
    Good afternoon: Ar ya orrite
    Good evening: Ar ya orrite
    Hello: Hay ya gitting on tagether
    Goodbye: Fare ya well tagether or Dew yow keep a troshun
    Unfortunate situation: A buggers muddle
    To chat with someone: Mardle
    To think someone is backward: Yow siller owld fule.
    Unimportant chatter: Squit
    Below standard: Thas a rumman
    A violent threat: Blast bor, yowl git a ding-a-tha-lug
    Feeling quite well: Fare t’ middlin

    FAMILY NAMES:

    Father: Far
    Mother: Martha
    Boy: Bor
    Girl: Gal

    A common question asked when trying to catch furriners out is: ‘Hay ya far got a dicky bor?’
    This means: ‘Has your father got a donkey boy?.




    PLEASE FILL IN THE GAPS AS APPROPRIATE.

    Photograph: (Fota) – When posing, always hold a frozen turkey or sugar beet in front of you, place a straw in the corner of your mouth and piece of black paper over one of your two front teeth, smile and look at the ceiling with a simple expression on your face.

    Great stuff.
    I got proper lost in Norwich last September. Was visiting on business and in the evening popped in somewhere for something to eat. Came out a bit disorientated, got further lost going round the castley thing and went in completely the wrong direction. Asked three different people the way and got three different sets of directions. One of them was a bus driver and his were the most inaccurate so christ knows how your public transport system functions.
    In the end just wandered around 'til I recognized something and found my way back to guest house about two hours late.

    Yeah, sorry to repeat myself but Maestro might've missed it first time around, plus it's my only surviving memory of the place.
    Never miss an opportunity to look a tit.

    Didn't seem important to correct you RHC but it was on this board. It happened in September last year and I brought it up on the match thread against Norwich.
    Yes I've only ever been saintanton (and kpr:bandit:) on this board and the old 606.
    Btw Maestro, the match thread against you lot was one of the best we've had on here imo and I'm looking forward to the next one.
    In the meantime maybe we'll take up your invite and visit your board, but be warned- some of us smell.
