Wiltshire Rhino Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Just finished my cider and on my way back to the bar, sidestepping the Toronto cut-outs you'd placed around us southerners, noticed that there small stage, with a mic, in the corner. So I'm going to entertain you northern folk with a bit of poetry recital. Hope you understood that. 2014 Challenged Cup Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire Rhino Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 16 minutes ago, Adelaide Tiger said: That takes me back to my 21st birthday back in 1984. The DJ in the pub asked if anyone wanted to try the yard of ale. People wrote their name down on a sheet of paper and a name was drawn out ... mine. Apparently nearly everyone had written my name down. So I was asked to take my T shirt off and stand on a chair next to the DJ. Wobbling on the chair I was given the yard of ale full of Yorkshire Bitter. I started drinking it and got down to the ball. Then all hell broke loose. The beer sloshed down the tube and most went up my nose. I turned to my left and vomited the beer plus the 5 or 6 pints I already drank all over the DJ and his tape deck. The regulars cheered, I fell off the stool and DJ went mental and wanted to chin me. I went to the bogs and washed myself. My mates then bought me a PINT of Bacardi and coke which I supped. I remembered staggering out before closing time. My next memory is one mate shaking me and saying ‘you need to get up’. I thought why is my mate in my bedroom. An even more frightening thought was ‘Bloody hell is he in bed with me!!!!’. When I sat up I found I was in the middle of the main road next to the pub. I had either passed out or just laid down to go to sleep. The reason I hadn’t been run over is that it had been snowing so drivers could easily see me laid down and many cars had carefully driven around me. Oh, we all a good laugh about that. 2014 Challenged Cup Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
