westerner Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 That's right. Nice One Cyril.jpg Come on you Spurs! My original allusion was to the original creator of the Odd Odes, Cyril Fletcher, but I suppose you lot are all too young to remember that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyril_Fletcher Unfortunately I'm not.

Well it depends upon how hungry you are especially in Gloucestershire. You could incorporate a nice Double Gloucester with an energetic run prior to eating it on a piece of toast ! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was song about a Tottenham Hotspur player, so not sport.

jazzer Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 I have just had the last of the Xmas pud..... the best thing about Xmas. Scoffing Xmas pud ? Shouldn’t you be down at Sheffield Exchange supervising the Engineering works so they don’t over run ? Poor passengers have to get to work next week, and you’re at home feeding your face ! If this goes on people will be wanting the system privatised so we don’t have all this inconvenience and all the trains run on time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted December 27, 2018 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted December 27, 2018 Not one morsel of pud has entered my gob this Christmas. Many mincing pies and a wide selection of chocolates has passed the point of no return as have too many biscuits and that is very naughty indeed.

Purley Oaks Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 No pud, pies, or chocolate for me this year, apart from a malt with hints of chocolate and mince and pud. Did have a little brandy cream on my porridge, though. Nothing beats leftover pud fried up in butter. Mmm mmm, as Oliver Hardy might say. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Bridge Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Trains have run every day over the Xmas period. They will be running in another household, I’m weaning my five year old Grandson off Lego and onto OO, even his father, who I thought we had lost to the dark side of surfing and Porsches, was impressed with some of the efforts in the “bake off” Happy New Year to you all Rich 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzer Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Trains have run every day over the Xmas period. Well done. Prototypical of the good old days before all this closing down for Injun Earring nonsense, when one could stay in London till the pubs shut on Christmas Eve and still get the 1.20am last train from Liverpool Street, which never seemed to be cancelled. If you were lucky and someone turned the electric off , they would put a DMU on and you would get an exciting ride as it screamed its guts out and nearly rattled itself to pieced trying to keep time on the electric timetable all stations to Southend ! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium brushman47544 Posted December 28, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2018 Wrong Cyril, the song was about Cyril Knowles, the Tottenham striker of the early 70s. Striker? Wasn’t he a left back (shirt number 3)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted December 28, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2018 Striker? Wasn’t he a left back (shirt number 3)? He was a defender, I think the song came from a rare moment when he scored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
