If we're going on an adventure we do it in full clobber mate ,nothing half mast unless its a foam party.
Were dropping your trousers at foam parties a thing in Liverpool? Running around a pool table in your underwear after being 7 balled is one thing, but dropping your trousers at a foam party is on a whole other level IMO P.S. When dd foam parties disappear? That's a blast from the past. I used to like them, although thankfully I have never been to one in Liverpool, given what goes on
Half mast has two meanings mate ,I was trying to be too clever attempting a paronomasia ie a play on words
I am living in South Yorkshire now so I cannot confirm that behaviour still goes on...still I can think of better nights than sat watching pool in the hope that somebody gets 7 balled!
Little naughty that is. Is an unwritten rule to shake the hand of the person who beats you.......and get them a drink for a seven ball. Surprised you didn't wrap the cue around his head.
If he'd stayed in the pub i would have done but he f*cked off so quick i'd never have caught up with him the sad f*cker.
I was in the Ellesmere Inn in Walkden one lunchtime donkeys years ago when I was working locally and a bloke came in with a little cue case and asked to play the winner on the pool table. When it was his game he opened his case and produced the only 3 piece cue I've ever seen before or since, and a cube of red chalk. He screwed his cue together and took his first shot, he was shite and the lad he was playing wiped the floor with him. He then dismantled his fancy cue, put it back in his little case and left with his red chalk. The phrase "all the gear, no idea" sprung to mind.
Prince Charles, the heir to the British throne, accepted $1.2 million from Osama bin Laden's family, The Sunday Times reported. The prince, 73, took the payment from two of bin Laden's half-brothers, Bakr, the patriarch of the family, and Shafiq, following a meeting at British royal residence Clarence House in October 2013, the paper said. The meeting occurred two years after US forces killed the Al-Qaeda leader in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The money was donated to the Prince of Wales Charitable Fund Shocked ,because I'm sure he would have preferred a plant named after him ?
Just highlighting the money was accepted as a donation to the charity rather than going into Charlies pocket before we have too many dangling on the vitriolic hook
Who remembers them different shaped pool tables in Amsterdam in the 80s? Round,square and oblong or have I dreamt this? Games took about an hour to finish.
Normal pool tables are 'oblong'? I played on an octagonal (might have been hexagonal) one in Belgium back in the day, no idea what the point of it was though.
I played on one in Northampton where you could turn the table around if you had to try and pot up against the wall,no matter how gently you turned it all the balls would move it was a farce.
