Vorsprung durch technic man bonnie lad

I often feel inadequate when I read the vowe posts in German. I wonder what he is on about? Perhaps he is from Redcar and he is just having us all on ;-)

The best I can do is post the previous entry in Geordie.

This, alang wi reality TV, is the begining o the end of western civilisation.

One gadgie wez stabbed near Ikea's newest store an several fowk were hurt in the crush as thoosands flocked te its midnight opening.

Nine ambulances went te the Edmonton store, north Lunnen , affta reports tha up te 20 fowk were suffering frem heat exhaustion an minor injuries.

Bargain-hunters even abandoned thor cars on the A406 north circular causing "severe traffic" problems, polliss sez . More ..

IKEA gawd.

It is at times leik these Ah think wi should, a cyber stylee, aal join hands an sing a hymn ... aal together noo:

Aw went to Blaydon races
'twas on the ninth of Joon,
Eiteen hundred an' sixty two,
on a summer's efternoon,
Aw tuek the bus frae Balmbra's,
an she wis heavy laden,
Away we went alang Collingwood Street thats on the road to Blaydon

O lads, ye shud only seen us gannin,
We passed the foakes upon the road
just as they wor stannin;
Thor wes lots o' lads an lasses there,
all wi smilin' faces
Gannin' alang the Scotswood Road,
to see the Blaydon Races

We flew past Airmstrang's factory
and up to the 'Robin Adair'
Just gannin' doon te the railway bridge,
the bus wheel flew off there.
The lasses lost their crinolines off,
an' the veils that hide their faces.
An' aw got two black eyes an' a broken nose
in ga'n te Blaydon Races

O lads, ye shud only seen us gannin,
We passed the foakes upon the road
just as they wor stannin;
Thor wes lots o' lads an lasses there,
all wi smilin' faces
Gannin' alang the Scotswood Road,
to see the Blaydon Races

Good Grief

This, along with reality TV, is the begining of the end of western civilisation.

One man was stabbed near Ikea's newest store and several people were hurt in the crush as thousands flocked to its midnight opening.

Nine ambulances went to the Edmonton store, north London, after reports that up to 20 people were suffering from heat exhaustion and minor injuries.

Bargain-hunters even abandoned their cars on the A406 north circular causing "severe traffic" problems, police said. More ..

IKEA gawd.

It is at times like these I think we should, a cyber stylee, all join hands and sing a hymn ... all together now:

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?

And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark satanic mills?

Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!

I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land.

Officer Dibble

A few weeks ago I took up letter writing again. My mum has been the victim of vadalism and attempted burglary over the past few months so I decided to write to the police chief to see what he was going to do about it. Turns out the chief of police is called Inspector Dibble .... I kid you not.

Hey Benny can you believe it?
