lake district canary 4,531 Posted June 11, 2012 getting back to Norwich. Scott Parker''s hair? Lambert stamping on Villa? Too much non City stuff. Its just that I was thinking of painting my fishing boat with a green hull and a yellow cabin. Do you think that will be over the top? Will I risk being sunk when I pull in to Felixstowe or Harwich, being so close to binland? Also I might rename her with a Norwich related name. Could you help me think of one? Cheers, me hearties!

Nexus_Canary 1,016 Posted June 12, 2012 Hey, my Scott Parker thread was directed as OT and dont diss the hair. Its like a Spitfire pilot traveled to 2012 and played for England Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablofarmer 0 Posted June 12, 2012 How about "King McNally" for your boat? As for Parkers hair, its a bit Roy of the Rovers too, and then you have Bale with his Astro Boy look. Maybe Spurs players are trying to look like their comic book heroes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way he stands, moves, runs and wears his clothes. Even my wife, who does not watch football at all, saw him and commented that he looks out of place and looks like he came forward in time!! I hope you don''t mind but I am going to adopt Spitfire Pilot for his new new nickname. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had thought of the ''Clucking Nora'' on account that she''s a bit wet inside and smells a bit fishy. Then there was "The Naughty Nutty" or the "Princess Chops" but I''m not sure....................."Huckerby''s Boats" might work................... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lets be aving you! 0 Posted June 12, 2012 Captain Haddock, Going off topic, I was interested in the origin and meaning of your strapline (''Seribu ...''). I tried teaching myself some Indonesian some years ago, and this seems to mean something like ''A billion hurricanes and bedbugs''. Is that right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
