Mole Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 I'm thinking of sending him a pair of my prize spoons as a welcome back present. I have a nice pair of Channel Island fiddle backs he might like. Any other ideas? How about a gift from us all payed for through a paypal collection?
Whitey Grandad Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 A full house for the first game of the season.
Weston Super Saint Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 A hat trick from one of our strikers wouldn't go a miss...

Mole Posted 22 June, 2009 Author Posted 22 June, 2009 One of these? (can you guess the breed?) He can graze it at Staplewood... I used to have a Jersey cow that went moo when you turned it upside down.
Whitey Grandad Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 I used to have a Jersey cow that went moo when you turned it upside down. It should have gone oow.
Weston Super Saint Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 I used to have a Jersey cow that went moo when you turned it upside down. I'm trying to work out under what circumstances did you first turn it upside down to find out that it mooed. I imagine them to be quite heavy.
Amesbury Saint Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 32,000 at a home match would be a good present!"
Pugwash Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 A new seat at the front of the director's box. And isn't it a Guernsey?
1976_Child Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 A new seat at the front of the director's box. And isn't it a Guernsey? Nope. She's a pure Jersey lass!!
1976_Child Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 It should have gone oow. !!! indeed, if rotated about the plain 180 degrees. !!
Saint_clark Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 FFS get him a Big Mac - he'll be happy....!!! I don't think Lawrie puts his "services" up for sale to be honest.

St Landrew Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 http://www.tasteofgoodness.co.uk/cows.html Let's be accurate about these things, eh..
batterseasaint Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 It should have gone oow. I'm sorry, but LOL!
1976_Child Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 (edited) A Guernsey cow Thank you Mole! ... and this is the by-product of all that grass they eat: The Skate: Edited 22 June, 2009 by 1976_Child
Bad Wolf Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 FFS get him a Big Mac - he'll be happy....!!! He seems happy with the bored he already has in place. Why bring Lawrie back in?
Pugwash Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 Nope. She's a pure Jersey lass!! Don't you realise the contempt that the two sets of islanders have for each other? Buying him the wrong cow could be the greatest insult imaginable. How about this one?
Mole Posted 22 June, 2009 Author Posted 22 June, 2009 This thread has potential. Apart from cows Guernsey is also famous for being the last Royalist stronghold to capitulate, in 1651.
Mole Posted 22 June, 2009 Author Posted 22 June, 2009 Don't you realise the contempt that the two sets of islanders have for each other? Buying him the wrong cow could be the greatest insult imaginable. How about this one? We should name her. I think she looks like a Daisy.
St Landrew Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 This thread has potential. Apart from cows Guernsey is also famous for being the last Royalist stronghold to capitulate, in 1651. Really..? So Cromwell left them until last to rub their noses in the cow dung. You learn something new every day. There's also a bit of sailing fact/trivia pertaining to the channel islands, which at this moment escapes me. Is it worth me mentioning that the German army occupied them as the only bit of British territory during WWII, or is that too much like common knowledge nowadays..?

Buying him the wrong cow could be the greatest insult imaginable. How about this one? fair point, but I could only find a Jersey cow picture. How about this instead: edit: not for a minute saying that we should buy him a guy model. Nor half a red-rusty cog.... Edited 22 June, 2009 by 1976_Child
Pugwash Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 fair point, but I could only find a Jersey cow picture. How about this instead: Like it! Does it come in red and white stripes?
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 How about a gift from us all payed for through a paypal collection? Hows about a statue? He sure deserves it and why wait til he's dead!
1976_Child Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 Hows about a statue? He sure deserves it and why wait til he's dead! we have to wait until he is dead. Can you imagine Ted's embarassment at the unveiling the first time round?!! Apart from nice smooth takeovers, we also don't so statues very well either...!
Mole Posted 22 June, 2009 Author Posted 22 June, 2009 Hows about a statue? He sure deserves it and why wait til he's dead! I know of an unemployed wood carver that's fallen on hard times.
Mole Posted 22 June, 2009 Author Posted 22 June, 2009 Mole, seriously, WTF? It's a Guernsey phone box.
The Farmer Posted 22 June, 2009 Posted 22 June, 2009 .....we also don't so statues very well either...! One day.... The memories.
paulwantsapint Posted 23 June, 2009 Posted 23 June, 2009 How much will it cost to get Glenn Hoddle's head mounted as a golf target?
Mole Posted 23 June, 2009 Author Posted 23 June, 2009 How much will it cost to get Glenn Hoddle's head mounted as a golf target? Dalek would like one of those, but i don't think he'd be using it as a golf target.
