When you say backwards you actually meant on your hands, except you didnt have hands because you were so poor in them days you ate your own fingers for food.... thats if you were lucky.

Good to see some levity has returned to the forum.
Now when I were a lad.........(insert summat awful here)I had to feed't cattle an'orses before I got me supper.By the time I 'ad me supper twas time for school the next morning,no school buses back then,only Postman Pat and a little white cat with his pony and trap.And if you missed him you were in for a walk of at least twenty miles one way.If you were late for school the headmaster would beat you to death with a telegraph pole so you knew not to be late again.
AAAAHHHH....Thems were the days :o

That's nowt lad. Tha' don' knooow thas' born!!!
Now when I were a lad, we couldn't even eat our fingers 'cause we'd had to eat our own mouths, having first taken out the imaginary plastic spoons we would have been born with - fact was our mothers couldn't afford to give birth, they had to steal us from a guillemot nest.
Now those guillemots were so poor, they only had one wing between 'em, and it were borrowed at that. The nest were made from rusty air that were left over from grandad's cough.
He had to cough into the sails of 'is mud fishing boat 'cause wind were taxed back then - that's right, wind tax, and it were only posh folk what paid that.

This is becoming way too Monty Python-esque.
We have managed to hi-jack the guy's thread regarding shin-splints which are a serious matter.
Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch anyone?


I'll get me coat......
