Doylo has promised a film for later.

Of course I meant to type 'Louis' - can one of the moderators change that? (It must be the naming curse of Lou Ferrigno/Ferrino.  )

Job done. For some reason it wouldn't let me do that the first time.

[grimer]

Yes, what is the thing about Lou Ferrino? Wasn't Lou Ferringo the steroid cow who played the Hulk?

" ...and I would get lotth of mail from women, many women, and they would tell me that i wath their thexual fantathy... "

[Pantontino]

It was a mistake, but it stuck, and it seemed a bit weird changing it once the name was so well established. Either way, it's a  great name for a great problem.

[Doylo]

8a+ my ass. Footage here:

[grimer]

That explains it. I was worrying for a moment that my memory of 1980s US TV was letting me down.

[a dense loner]

but it is letting you down grimer. he was, and still is, called lou ferrigno.

danny is a beast, but not compared to big louie

[grimer]

Really! But that's a daft way to spell Ferringo.

[a dense loner]

yes, it could quite easily lead to confusious

[dave]

looks like a fucking good effort. and presumably opens up yet more hard linkup possibilities no diggity doubt.

Fucking awesome Danny!  Looking forward to trying this one - look briliant.

[Greg C]

Good work youth. To coin a wise man "look briliant". 

What you mean like this...



PS: Nice to see the old Chili pad is still going strong.

At least I've never succumbed to the 'Holy Fuck, it must be a ghost' fuckwitness up at Thorn Crag - Hmmm....

Qué?   ???

[Houdini]

Fear not Gregory,

Myself and the mandingo spent some time wrestling natives in the arse-end of the Upper Seiont back in '95 and we learnt much of their brute, Cro-Magnon-like tongue.

(Ha!  Feisty little chaps they are too, but nothing a good crack of a bull-whip can't sort out sharpish, what?!)


Takes me back to the time I'd taken the Rudge out for a spot of high-jinx in the rough, somewhere near that place the savages call KlanberriezNgonapo-po . . .

At least I've never succumbed to the 'Holy Fuck, it must be a ghost' fuckwitness up at Thorn Crag - Hmmm....

Is this a reference to witnessing a ghost having a fuck, 'ghostdogging: way of the keenofai' if you will, or fuckwittedness?

[Johnny Brown]

Probably just Nige having another wank

[c.j.d.]

Okay Mr C, Nigel told me an interesting tale of a BFG style farmer up at Thorn, 18th century dress, giant ears, crook and a twin brother - you know the rest!
