Reflex, innit?

So what's our take on that east hull primary school teacher calling the locals 'inbreds' and such like? Rugby banter, apparently. Should have joined RLfans. She'd have probably have registered as MsRobertsfromWescott though. And we're the stupid ones apparently. I trust in the interest of fairness and consistancy the HDM will be running a 2 page witch hunt, in similar fashion to the Citys last Facebook incident icon_wink.gif

Kumara is what we call sweet potato. Or 'Orange spuds' in west Hull (allegedly).
Learn something everyday.
Were they baked or fried? Do 'em with some Reggae, Reggae sauce...

Fried Kumara,
Jamaican aroma.

Contrived and weak. Sorry.

My public lecture went well, btw. Go me.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg



Quote: Little Robin Redhead "I do a Zumba class on a Wed morning after I've taken the boys to school. I usually get changed at the leisure centre, but the school has started a Stay & Read session on a Wed morning & I end up rushing to make the class. So I've started going to school in my gym stuff, I don't look out of place at all. Mind you if I turned up in my pyjama bottoms I wouldn't look out of place either. I mean what's that all about?'"


Where are you up to?

When I was at primary school, once you could read a particular book, might have been "The Blue Kite" or I might just be making that up you got your own copy of "The Golden Cockerel" hymn book to sing from in assembly.

I mean what sort of incentive is that?

Wearing your pyjama (what a great word that is, no doubt Worm Person will be along to tell me it's wrong) bottoms out and about is really just saying "I am a degenerate idiot", only person I've seen doing that recently is that divoz.

Quote: Little Robin Redhead "Had some kumara chips for lunch today - got them at KFC - chips were great - chicken was awful.'"


Kumara chips? What strange Antipodean fare is this?

KFC chicken is always horrible, they cook it in old engine oil.

Quote: Little Robin Redhead "
Whitby has good chippys, everyone you pass has a "Best yorkshire chippy 2000 and odd" in the window. The one on the front, is it Magpies? Always has a 1000 people queing outside.'"



Yeah, Magpie Café supposed to be really good, I've never been, because there's always a massive queue.

I'll tell you my story about going on holiday to Whitby one day.

Captain Cook set off from there and ended up discovering roopy and his wondrous chips. The reason we don't know what roopy's kumara chips are is because the nasty Hawaiians skewered him before he got back, or was it the Tongans'? Forget now.

Quite funny, loving the outraged faces the mums have put on. Teachers, pfft! Always thinking they know best, loads of 'em in my family, best avoided.

Blue bit, exactly.

Monster post that.

Might start doing that, responding to everyone's posts in one huge post.

Kumara chips were fried.

We call it sweet potato too, but we have 3 or 4 different types of sweet potato, and Kumara is the nice one.

These are in every supermarket here.

They are Kumara chips, despite the Americanised name.

Why don't we have different types of sweet potatos?

If you have the orange ones you have the best.
The yellow, White and purple ones are bland and taste like either squash or potato.
Although the Polynesians all clain the yellow ones are the reason they all grow so big.

We just have them because Pacific Islanders live on them, and we have big PI populations.

Yeah, that's what we have, the orange ones.

Shouldn't you be in bed?

This is getting weird. McCain are from Scarborough. Maybe Captain Cook actually took them with him, instead of bringing them back.

Quote: roopy "
Brilliant for Levi,bet a few dragons are kicking themselves over that one.
I thought that the tall one, what's his name, Peter, used to go out with that Rachel who turned out to be rubbish, lives in the next village to me, used to see him sometimes, eight foot tall but very small feet, often used to topple over, went into business with Levi?

Don't like it any more, they're all just nasty to the people for the sake of it. Can't stand Paphitis, little runt.
