What chance have you got against a tie and a crest...?

Actually it still doesn't make much sense. Even we had a tie and a crest at my 5h1tty comprehensive. Ours said 'non sidi sed omnibus'.

'Don't sit on the bus'?
Weird school you went to there Mr Fang...

It means 'not for oneself but for everyone'. If you appended an 'else', it would be pretty close to Cameron's attitude to comprehensive education.

What's more, you'd have a somewhat better chance in a punch up if your opponent is wearing a tie. It something to throttle them with.

Coppers and security staff used to wear clip-on ties to prevent them from being used as de-facto nooses.

Good grief, I post one line of lyric en passant and see what happens? I need a lie down, I'm suffering from over-exposure.

Steady on old girl, I can almost see your ankles!

<and I haven't a clue what the lyric was. Bet it's the Smiths though...>

The SMITHS!!!? Good grief...

The Jam, dear boy: Eton Rifles.

I think I might've been a POB today. I went out and cycled many miles, but wore a t-shirt and normal shorts and got ignored by almost all of the helmeted, lycra'd cyclists I nodded a hello at on the Bath to Bristol cycle path. Ignorant c**ts!

Perhaps this should be the Tories next campaign tune.

I heard Hilary Clinton was using Chumbawumba's 'I get knocked down but I get up again' in her campaign. They must be so proud.

Ah, I was trading on assumptions there wasn't I?
I can still see your ankles though...

As their lies wash you down and their promises rust

Oh how far Mr Weller's come. From that to covering soppy Sister Sledge records!

 

[Yellow Fang]

Murder on the terraces,
Fools in high places,
It's all so sickening,
And we're so satisfied,
In the streets today.

Written when he was less than 20.

I like that cover!
