"When are the xmas lights going up?"

[Pete Reek]

General, cood yi naw jeest santer doon kinna casual an duvul may care so that the weans cood shout at yi an heckle yi a wee bit? It wud be sumthin positive on the night, an it wud get yi oot in the fresh err fur an oor or two.

Yi wud dae well at it ahm shure, cos you wur used tae floats wurnt yi? They mightuv been net floats or that, but a floats a float shurely.

Ahv got tae admit tho, ah really canna see yi wi green tights on.

Naw yur right, jeest wett in the bluddy hoose.

[general jack o'niell]

i'll say this aboot ye, ye get there in the end, might take ye a wee while, but you get there right enough

i'm naw allowed doon, i complained aboot them makin the boy staun for ower an oor before the self publicists an gloryseekers got under way, naw knowing it was the weans in the bands that the folk wanted to see. they were bluddy frozen, then had tae humpf a drum the length of the longrow behind thon clowns wae lights on their vans. i got the "what exactly did you say?" stare, so i'm banned, from any public gatherings, not just lights getting switched on, i'm only allowed oot between 9am and 11am on a tuesday, other than that i've to be accompanied by an adult and i've not to stop and speak to anyone, or walk with my hands in my pockets, as it looks common, i'll be spittin in the gutters next, so i'm told

[Pete Reek]

Christ

Nae bluddy wunner yur such a crabbit owld bugger maist o the time.
Canna say as I blame yi tho.

Hing on, hing on.
Yur naw jeest actin it ur? Ah bet yi dont want tae go oot ennyway so yi dae things tae annoy "she who must be obeyed" so that she bans yi fae pittin a fut ower the dorrstep.

Nae flies on you General. Uf a wore a hat ah wid take it off in deference tae yi. ( See that big word slidin in therr, eh?) Ahm naw right shure hoot it means mind, but ah think ahm near enuff.

Catch yi later maybe.

[general jack o'niell]

[Pete Reek]

Has this Joe guy ever switched on the lights at the Town Hall, or is he just an imag of your figmentation?

Vote Ninja for Citizen of the Year.

[general jack o'niell]

don't mention citizen of the year, for christ sake man, i mentioned it awhile ago as a wee sort of joke and a man took wild offence to it, seems it was a touchy subject with him, why i don't rightly know, but i'm sure i'll get wan oh his wee PM's that will tell me ah aboot it, and then ca' me a fud for naw taking this place seriously enough!!!

yi know whit some folk are laik?

as for this joe you refer to, you'd have to follow the link above to find the answer to that, its a family joke and i thought it safe to put it here seeing as me an sweltered are the big weans that still use this place and bebo, the other two are far too grown up and have moved off to start networking on facebook, which is rubbish, it told me i was going to die when i was 68, thats pish for a start, i wisnae planning on living past 50 tops, why bother? i canna do hauf the thing i used to be able to do, by the time i'm 50 that'll half again, so wait another 18yrs just to do this nonsense and the odd suduko, i'm naw sure i can even live thru next years european championships in whitever mongol nation it is hadden them, naw withoot the mighty engerlund there to represent us.

bugger the xmas lights, wire me up to the mains, i'll jeest go eenooo

[Pete Reek]

Dont be so tight. Wire yi up an yi'll go noo? Hoot aboot the weans praisunts? Some folk wid dae ennything tae naw buy praisunts. Another thing,if yoor naw here tae eat yur ferr sherr oh the turkey yur weans will lakely be haivin it on sanwiches tae the end o January.

Enniwi, hoots wrang wi Ninja as the high heid yin for a year?

[general jack o'niell]

damn, i've been found out, if it wasn't for my wife nobody would get any presents, birthdays or christmas, or bloody easter eggs either, all the delicious chocolate, ruined by giving it to weans that just fill their faces, i wish i was a better person so i could be sanctimonious and go on about the starving millions while the western world gorges itself during a holiday season which most have forgotten the significance of, spending billions on pure shite, just because its the done thing and you canna let they weans doon. but no, i'm not, i'm just a miserable bugger, and resent having to put my hand in my pocket for anything, that includes charities (if your thinking of coming to my door or stopping me in the street and waving a can in front of my face)

the sooner its the middle of january and all that pish is behind us the better, all i'm looking forward to is the xmas day and new years eve NFL coverage, the rest can go and purr as far as i'm concerned, never liked xmas as a kid, still don't, my pair have been told that santa is now dead and seeing as they know its us that buys the presents they shouldn't be disappointed when they get heehaw.

i don't do presents, i don't write cards, i don't wish anyone happy holidays or any other shite, you go ahead and enjoy yourselves, celebrate all you want, have a great time, just leave me out of it, i hate it, best xmas i ever had was just me and the wife on a beach on the algarve, over there it a religious thing, funny that!!! so unless you went to a chapel or a church it was just like another day, just the way i like it. oh i know everyone is gearing themselves up as this year might be the year that the co-op and tesco run oot of milk and breed and beer, you know, for that whole bloody day that they'll be shut.

if the UK and USA donated everything they would normally spend on xmas for just one year it would end world hunger and bring a cure for cancer and aids ten years closer, xmas is not about the birth of a mythical messiah, its about man's greed, i can eat turkey any day of the year, i wish i took a drink, i'd just sit and get pished and let it waft over me, instead i'll be standin making chipollatos, and soup and special starters and all that nonsense for hours on end as per usual (and no, i canna go out for dinner, i haven't found anybody that can cook good enough, so i'll make my own thank you) still, i'm only cooking for 12 this year, so its not so bad, and my daughter found the comedy socks i was given last year when we were moving furniture this morning, so i've that to look forward to, WHAT do you give the man that wants frick all except peace, not on earth, just peace and quiet, my ambition is to go to bhutan for xmas one year, but then i'd miss the last weeks of the regular season

i did have a great thanksgiving, three live games, back to back and of course thursday was a day to give thanks, thanks for not being born south of gretna

and no , pete reek was not being serious, but i am!!!!

Pound shops are a manifestation - of the failings of Capitalist Society .

Or the epitome of economics....supply & demand
