Hi ex-rowellite!! Yep, the very same rothwell. The proclamation takes place every year and a fight is still on between us and the Desborough enemy but it's tamed down a bit now as the police only allow 2 mins for each scrap at each pub. No dragging a boat through the town though like they used to (before my time!) I did the pub thing once as was totally drunk by 8am and decided that was the last time. At least, until the next time.... Pubs are (were) open from 5am for a week and because it's a proclamation/royal degree, the police cannot close it down but they definitely don't want the pubs to open. All proc pics are welcome as well as the A45!
Ha, only 2mins. I really can't remember the name of the pub but in the middle of the weenie high street on the North side, got banned cause the scrap became a bit of Bikers vs Rufty Villagers and full on. Got banned from the whole of Rothwell by the old bill even though I lived there. I was allowed to be 'at home' or 'out' - when 'out' it meant out of Rothwell. So I moved. LOL. I seem to remember they had the most dangerous zebra crossing in the country - in the middle of a blind double bend on the main road. Blimey, over 40 odd years ago.....I am very old though
Rothwell's loss is bristols gain! The red lion btw! And yes, that zebra crossing is more of a fingers crossed crossing!
Nah, those are proper natural beauties... Pity Wee Jimmy hasn’t got any. Edit: Nice to see we are back at a low level of piss taking again. Phew! Edit 2: McJimmy Is a double bagger with a hyena. One bag on her head so you don’t have to see her. Another bag in your head just in case her’s comes off. The hyena is the chew your arm off should she fall asleep on your arm.
I have just been having an interesting conversation with the cat about your curious obsession with abusing 'Wee Jimmy' every other day. In a flash of feline insight, she pointed out what I had been missing: you're in denial and trying to suppress a guilty passion for our Glorious Leader. Just give in to it, Cy - you're amongst friends here. It's nothing to be ashamed of...
FFS @Dave49 you may be right. Please don’t tell anyone. EVER! Edit: did your cat offer any similar insight to your love affair with Bunty Knobhead Johnson?
Just ur type. Edit: we are amongst friends. You can admit the reason for your obsession with dear bumbling Bunty.
You must have heard the expression "It's enough to make a cat laugh". And I thought you didn't like people referring all the time to Scottishness, and now you're doing it yourself. In fact, I think you do it more than anybody. Still, I'll let you off...
