It was proven to me just how weak we all are these days when I went to Rye and visited the castle. The guide there told me that Archers would have to do tests to qualify, and would have to it a target something like 12 times in a minute. He then asked me to pull this rope, which I did, and it was bloody heavy!!! He then asked me to do it with one hand, and after 3 pulls,(which took at least 30 seconds), my arm was shaking! He also said that back then they'd drink 30 to 50 pints in a day if there was a party! I want to go back in time!!!!

Yep. When were you there? I left in 89

Surely Monday Mornings, and smiling don't go han in hand :-S

The class argument is bo!!ocks mate. Anyway, I initially agreed totally with you Chav... When I was at school, there were some great athletes who went on to represent England. Now most of these guys weren't the most academic, but this let them succeed at something and hold their heads high. I was a crap runner (rugby was the only sport I did well at school), but I got my chance to shine through music, so I was happy. I came home this evening and discussed this with Mrs Keef (a primary teacher), and she said she could see exactly what you were saying, and would probably feel the same if it was her kid. However, something she did point out is that some kids just aren't great at anything, so they finish badly in class, then sports day comes along and they finish last there too. Now if that was your kid, it would break your heart, and you would want to spare them that pain... I believe in competition, and it's part of life, but I do think that those clever kids who are bad at sport probably could handle one day of loosing. Think of the kids who never win, do they deserve yet more failier?

I remember visiting someone in there in the early 90s, and it was a bit grim then. That said, I was born there, so it's great! ;-)

I thought he was finished. Good rhyme btw :)

Agreed

I was chatting to Mrs Keef about this the other day (well not exactly this, but stay with me). Just saying that it was funny if you look up above the shops on Sydenham High Street, and compare them to Lordship Lane, the buildings are just so much nicer in Sydenham. I suspect (and I can't be arsed to look in to this), that ED was originally where the servants lived who would service the village and west. Sydenham was once a wealthy area, and a lot of houses were built around the time of the great exhibition. Camberwell boasts some absolutely gorgeous old houses... How times change eh? ;-)

But they've had too much drink, and will shortly sink

Places it all on the barby* *Puts on Stetson and heads over to do some bull riding, sure that the alcohol intake will lessen the pain when he is thrown after 1 second!*

Sean, I never said I didn't like her, I just we shouldn't stop there! ;-) And yes, always had a soft spot for Agent Scully!

Good call, but Mockney, surely Jade Goodey is the yummy mummy for you? I know you like a classy bird ;-) Bit of a Gillian Anderson fan myself >:D<

Oh please can we look further?!?!?! Asset, you little trend setter you! it's all becomes clear now, I assumed the pram was the pressie, and she was taking it out to show all her mates, sorry, chums her new accessory on her birthday ;-)

Corner of Barry and Underhill. Been there years, and usually gets good reviews.

DM, don't be disappointed. Perhaps MILF was rather crass, my point was simply that the term "yummy mummy" simply started as a term to describe an attractive mother. It is only more recently that it has been used to describe a "type" of person. Asset is a Bugaboo a pram? If it is, I would be royally p!ssed off (as I am 100% sure would Mrs Keef) if someone got me that for MY birthday...... Why would the mother want a pram for her birthday, next she'll be getting a new iron! ;-)

Only just seen this thread, and got to thinking. I first heard the term "yummy mummy" the same weekend I first heard the term "chav". Both were used by lads I was on a stag weekend with in 2004. Now Yummy Mummy was used to describe a very attractive woman who was with her equally attractive daughter at the airport. Yummy Mummy simply meant MILF. Chavs was used to describe a really nice bunch of lads we bumped in to from Essex, a couple of whom were sporting the Burberry caps that were so linked with the term. In this case it was used affectionately. Now it could well be that I just stumbled on to these late, but the point is that chav was a bit of a joke about a fashion sense, and yummy mummy simply meant good looking mother. However, as time passed, the people that love to make everything about class got hold of these terms, and yummy mummy no longer ,meant "fit mother", it meant "Middle Class, 3 wheeler buggy, mid 30's mother". Chav meanwhile started being used to describe working class lads, and anyone involved in a pub fight! Now I admit that I have used both terms, because they have taken on certain meanings, and everyone knows what you mean. However, they shouldn't have done, they were harmless terms, which have been turned in to class definitions, and as usual, it's a load of bo!!ocks.

*Whispers to Sean* "The pictures are real, and yes I miss it!!!!!! Just imagine if this was your back yard!" *Hands friend a whiskey*

*Nips in to the quiet room from Rancho Relaxo* *Puts up a sign* "Please join us in the Ranch, as it's summer" *Tuns to leave and slips over in a pool of milk*

And a taste for sin

*Emerges with shopping bags full of fresh meat* *Lights the Barby* *Lights a little mini barby for the vegetarians* *Walks up to bar smiles at DM. Makes a turbo shandy and offers up thanks to the God of weekends!* :)-D

So anyway, I was chatting with a guy about 80's music last night, and he said "if you're talking 80's rockfish are a must!". :-S

If we're talking embarrassing tunes from our early years, T.U.R.T.L.E POWER by Partners in Kryme is probably the most embarrassing! Note: I have no sound at work, so I'm hoping this is the right link!
