Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 19 Nov 03 - 11:04 AM Just my luck a booking for my World Tour and it's at Camp X-Ray !!! Suppose it would be mighty darn stupid to put some waivers in the contract. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: DougR Date: 20 Nov 03 - 12:56 AM Not to worry. According to the latest "Guardian" poll, the majority of Brits welcome Bush's visit. The "Guardian" is a publication with impeccable liberal credentials, right? The thousands that will gather in Trafalgar Square tomorrow represent, evidently, the minority of extreme left-wing Brits who do not welcome his visit. I think GWB's visit will be great for America's greatest friend, Tony Blair. DougR |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Dave Bryant Date: 20 Nov 03 - 05:50 AM You've missed the point DougR, the reason that most people welcome GWB's visit is not because they like him, but because it makes it easier to protest against his policies - not that the thick, egotistical bastard would realise that people are protesting. Could you imagine the news flash: President George Bush was shot dead by a sniper in London today. Upon reaching hospital his condition was described as satisfactory. Mind you the last time he had a medical, they suggested turning off the life-support because he appeared to be brain-dead. . . er . McFat/Raggy have you got any details on what I need to pack for Camp X-Ray ? |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 20 Nov 03 - 09:20 AM x-ray specs, cake with a file in it, rubber pants, book on interrogation techniques, cuddly toy, mobile phone with Uncle Osama's number in it, cuddly toy, copy of sheep shaggers monthly, labour party membership form, Al Quiada membership card, photograph frame with piccies of Tony and Georgie, cuddly toy, cuddly toy. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: DougR Date: 20 Nov 03 - 12:29 PM Dave: I don't believe I have. You seem to be engaged in nothing more than wishfull thinking IMO. DougR |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 20 Nov 03 - 01:51 PM I'd have thought theat with sheep and goats there GWB would have been better enlisting the musical talents of lord Kenneth de chesterfield got your e-mail Raggy will try to phone sometime before Saturday - no guarantees though! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: The DeanMeister Date: 21 Nov 03 - 03:58 AM In view of the fact that our trusty box player and anchorman, Mr. Watson, is in bed with the flu, it is likely that the pugilists will be sporting a slightly altered line up for this saturdays festivities. We shall be joined, at great expense, by the legendary Mr. Richard Wastling, together with whatever instruments he turns up with. Oh, and Raggy, because of this, it also looks likely that we won't be requiring accommodation for the night. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 21 Nov 03 - 04:53 AM Wastling and his weapons of mass destruction again !!! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: The DeanMeister Date: 21 Nov 03 - 05:38 AM Be afraid, Phatboy. Be very afraid. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Raggytash Date: 21 Nov 03 - 06:39 AM Is this another challenge to a duel My Leige? Is this whippersmapper deigning to give doubt to your prowess so mightily demonstrated in the rout at the Sun Inn Beverley some months ago. Does he consider himself worthy to doubt your magnificence, if this be so I will be as always your trusty, loyal (not to say downright devious and underhand)right hand man. You can rely on me sire to cut his manhood away with a blunt and rusty instrument made of some toxic material |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 21 Nov 03 - 07:22 AM We on about rusty stanley knives again !! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Dave Bryant Date: 21 Nov 03 - 07:26 AM McFat/Raggy - why don't you ask your mate GWB if he'll give you a hand to sort this new threat out. Second thoughts after all the "friendly fire" incidents, perhaps it would be safest if you asked him to support the other side. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 22 Nov 03 - 06:33 AM glad to see see you boys are still enjoying your jibes and games all we need now is old git to join in and then you can really have fun - what a shame big bird wont be there to cheer you all on!! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Big Bird Date: 24 Nov 03 - 03:32 AM Apologies chaps - had a prior engagement with me paw and a few pints at the english school of folk dance and music (or something like that) - the wilsons say hello! Anyway, us Southerners only get allowed thru the Watford Gap once a year for Beverley Festival! We had a pint for you 'orrible lot - lager for me, whisky for Dad as in the Beverley tradition. So hope you had a good one, and I await the results of the latest duelling round with trepidation.... |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Dave Bryant Date: 24 Nov 03 - 04:42 AM Were you around at CSH on Saturday then Big Bird ? You should have come and said hello - Linda and I were trying to meet up with other mudcatters. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Big Bird Date: 24 Nov 03 - 04:52 AM Aha - you didn't have a jumper on with Mudcat Cafe and your name on the front did you? If so, spied you in the last few minutes of the singaround before the second half. Seem to remember singing 'Hard Times'. There would have been no point catching up with you then, I had lost all ability to co-ordinate speaking and manipulating a pint glass at the same time, and we all know which of the two is more important! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: The DeanMeister Date: 24 Nov 03 - 05:03 AM Not like you to be in such a state, BB... With regard to Saturday night, we had an absolutely wonderful evening. PTH's ranks were swelled to a five piece, with the duelling fiddles of both Nik Nak and brother Oakley in SPLENDID form, as well as the resplendent Rich Wastling on Banjo, Mandola, Guitar and an abundance of harmonicas, together with the Meister and the mighty ossonflags. For my part, I must thank Raggy and Chris for a lovely evening. I enjoyed the gig more than any we have played in many a month. With regard to the scallywag phatboy, it appears he was daunted by the presence of such greatness to the degree that he chickened out of the confrontation altogether. He knows when he's beaten, evidently, and failed to show up at all. He'll not challenge me again so readily, methinks. (actually, he had been playing in the afternoon according to R&WR, and the wages was free beer....! Oh dear....) Once again, thanks to all who made it such a lovely evening. Pete. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Oaklet Date: 24 Nov 03 - 06:31 AM The band was swollen by the presence of Niknak. So was I, come to think of it. Lovely do, Raggy. Thanks a million. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 25 Nov 03 - 01:57 AM Big bird you missed a treat - the Dean meister was so enthusiastic about being in this lovely town of ours he broke his g string!! Good job MCFAT wasnt there else it could have got nasty what with duelling fiddles and - dare I say it - the odd appearance of a banjo Milnsbridge will never be the same again!! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: The DeanMeister Date: 25 Nov 03 - 03:58 AM Why thankyou, R&WR....! *blush* It would have indeed been messy. Good job he chickened out. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 25 Nov 03 - 05:06 AM Moi 'mushroom' out, no way. It's was a combination of excuses, sorry, reasons. One I was being paid in Abbeydale Moonshine beer a fine drop indeed. In fact copious volumous quantities were imbibed. Plan A was to get a taxi thence onto a choo choo but there were no hackney carriages to be found. Plan B was to get the next choo choo but Hackney carriages arrive too late. Plan C was to make myself scare as R & W wabbitt was on the warpath !! this led to Plan D get more drunk and stay in Sheffield. I was fired up for the fight Deano and you don't get off that lightly. There will be other times other places and other ways to skin you, you varmit. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: The DeanMeister Date: 25 Nov 03 - 06:24 AM Oooooh I'm sooooooooo scared..... |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: ossonflags Date: 25 Nov 03 - 06:36 AM The snoring was quite good to. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 25 Nov 03 - 07:46 AM When it comes to snoring no one can beat my trusty third Lord Ken de Johson of Brampton. He is Derbyshire, All England and European champ. |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: ossonflags Date: 25 Nov 03 - 12:55 PM How is he at this |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 25 Nov 03 - 02:58 PM My experience of Sir Kenneth was that he only snores - ( he kept us awake at Warwick as he was in the tent next door - my kids still talk about it!)- he would never dream of emitting methane to cause difficulties with the ozone layer well not unless it meant he was going to get a free chinese - with bamboo shoots/ bean splouts! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: The DeanMeister Date: 26 Nov 03 - 05:14 AM Nice one, Michael...!! |
Subject: RE: Does Bush need Raggy & MC Fat From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 26 Nov 03 - 06:13 AM When I was at Sidmouth with Sir Kenneth a few years ago, we were coming back from the LNE when we passed this tent on the camp site. The snoring was quite loud. I said to Sir Ken 'Listen to that snoring'. He replied tersely 'That's not snoring !! give me five minutes and I'll show you what real snoring is !!' |
