For those not so well educated, let me explain...
A pair of thrupennies = a sixpence.  The nickname for a sixpence was a tanner.  Tanner rhymes with spanner.  A spanner is also called a wrench in the suburbs of The United States of Cockinee .  The word "wrench" is, as near as damn it, identical to the word wench.  A wench was synonymous with a female woman... oft of ill-repute... and oft with large breasts.  (This was, of course, back in ye days of olde yore, well before it was considered ungentlemanly to refer to such personal anatomysticals!)
Erm... so, where was I?  Oh yeah... tits.  He's referring to tits.  So now yer know!
You're welcome.
 
 
*Ye olde custom of putting tanners in a Xmas pudding bears no resemblance to the above... unless it's being served up by a voluptuous wench, of course!  In which case, may I be the first to wish you a Merry bloody Xmas, everyone!  

 

Winning this now will be like making love to a beautiful woman...

 

You called? 

I did notice you missed an away game the other week, and have also had a different seat at PP recently (presumably lower down/less stairs?)
No idea whether you've posted the reasons behind this, and I've just missed it, or whether this is your first mention of "hobbling"?
I'm certainly not wishing to pry, so no need to explain, but I did want to wish you well in your recovery, and hope you are hobble-free sooner rather than later!
Tek care o' thesen!

Lucky for you, you are are half a globe away.  I'd keep quiet about your Xmas homecoming plans if I were you.  He's gonna be seething when he sees this!  🤣

Make that 3 years, mate.
Try to start the 2025 thread before you go to Stalis next September, and you should just about make it!  👀

I'll take the smile, and thumbs up, as a good sign!  😁
 
The last time I went to the match with (one) crutch (and a leg in plaster) was Grimsby away, 1980... on a terrace!  
Dread the thought now of course, but I was an otherwise fit 17 year old back then, so not an ordeal in the slightest!  🤣

I was travelling during the 11pt season. Didn’t get to touch base that often. I was in the country for the first game, went to pride park. Saw us put in a pretty decent effort to get a point from a 2-2 draw with, I want to say Portsmouth (which makes me realise things could be worse). Then headed off for adventures in Africa and beyond for 18 months.
then the only game I got to see while travelling was the win against Newcastle. So as far as I was concerned, it was a pretty good season. 4 points from 2 games.

Sorry @Mostyn6!

It also gave me a chance on a thread about red dogs to highlight the fact that we have actually won it twice 😉

Watched a bit of his latest appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience last night, even Elon himself was calling it "X fk Twitter"

I have to say, despite not being a user myself, I'm very impressed with whoever decided to shorten the name from "Twitter" to "X (Formally known as Twitter)".
Just seems to roll off the tongue now... a bit like when Prince shortened his name to "Symbol (The artist formally known as Prince)".

Had an absolutely poo week last week (mother in law into hospital,  heart attack (ok now TF), but cancelled long planned holiday to Iceland) so really cheered up to see tonight's result.  Hope this is us rejuvenated. 

Great evening. A 4-0 win and I won the matchday thread bingo.
Full House! 

But anyway. 11pts. That was s*** wasn’t it?

The irony is that we had so many trick or treaters this year that we ran out of sweets (and we had a massive tub full to start with)
In the end I was just giving out fags to all the kids as I couldn't stand to see their disappointed faces

Or under anyone.

What if the car was driven by someone who had been having a good time in the pub?  A sort of compromise, if you will.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Now THAT's gallows humour!  👀

Well that's scuppered my little surprise!  🙄
I was banking on me being the only one who knew about that!
