    Stop Hammer time, Mark i loved the Hammer, i always wanted a pair of them parachute pants, they were boss them. The guys a hip hop legend, did you know he was very close friends with the late Mr Tupac Shakur? They even recorded an album which is has not been released!

    I cant wait till its released, im gonna learn all the words and sing them to female humans as a way to impress them and gain their affections. Someone once said to me the way to a womans heart is through rap, im gonna put this theory to the test my friend.

    I tried to hire or buy some parachute pants for my mates stag night but I cant find them anywhere! His stag night is this Saturday, and I was gonna go as the legendary MC Hammer. I might try your hip hop rapping theory whilst on his stag night. I'll let you know how many phone numbers I get. Or indeed, how many slaps across the face I receive.



    Thanks Lee. You are indeed a legend.

    Well I have to say Lee that your theory on rapping to the opposite sex was spot on. I had a really succesful evening on Saturday night. I have an even bigger tip for you though Lee. Give this one a try when your next out buddy. At the end of your evening, if you are participating in consuming a parmo, or a kebab, leave the queue and do a backspin in the middle of the take-away!



    I tried this on Saturday night and the kebab shop erupted in a rapurous round of applause, and the girls came flocking just like the Lynx advert!!!



    Give it a go and let me know how you get on!

    Hello Mark. I have been working in cleethorpes recently and the opportunity to do a backspin, in an establishment which sells food, in the presence of females presented itself last night........

    With disasterous consequences......... I estimate i was only about 180 degrees into my attempted 1080 degree spin. (Three full backspin revolutions) when i accidently kicked a bloke who was out with his mates and they were all a little drunk. I cant remember much of what happened after that, but needless to say i was kicked senseless by the group of males and i had my food order stolen. I think my pride took the biggest bashing though as i found out one of the lads went to the toilet on me while i was unconscious.

    My jaw has been fractured in two places i have a couple of cracked ribs a black eye and i lost a tooth, I did however manage to get a girls phone number, she was the one who phoned for an ambulance, i dare not give her a ring incase she knows that someone has had a wee on me. I might send her a text when the bruising and swelling has gone down.

    Lee - OUCH



    hope it all gets better and the swelling reduces - or at least the pain goes away.



    With regard to the Blue Oyster - hmm yess well thanks but whilst I remember the film, it's not my cup-of-tea for the average beverage - if you know what I mean - but the scene is a classic which I still refer to if ever needed. But - that was the 80's and (at least at my Poly') we did not know/bother that Jimmie (sp?) Sommerville et al. liked boys more than they liked girls - but each to their own.



    Your nightclub experince sounds hilarious - sorry if it wasn;'t (broken bones & teeth, urine etc.) but it's almost a scene from a US comedy film. If not today, next year watch the hollywood films with the scene in. I guess your typing has not suffered - look after yourself and try ot to spill any drinks Smile

    Oh Lee. I am truley sorry for the bad experience you suffered as a result of your attempted backspin!! I had no such problems with my attempt. Infact I pulled it off with great unexpectancy and my results were far better. I maybe should have mentioned that you need an element of space in order to do it successfully.



    I hope you feel much better soon, and that your pride can be repaired after someone decided to do a toilet on you.

    Could i first thank you guys for your support through this difficult time, My injuries are beginning to heal, although my doctor suspects that the mental scars i have suffered due to someone going to the lavatory on me may take some time to heal.

    I would like to tell Markymark that in no way do i hold him responsible for what happened to me, it was my own daft fault for showing off in KFC infront of some females.

    I think i will perfect the skill of preforming backspins in the comfort of my own home before i decide to take this skill outdoors and unlease it on the public.

    I would like to inform you guys that the incident was captured on CCTV, the police have been in touch with me, and they have arreseted three people over the incident. two 15 year old males and a 14 year old female.

    Im hoping i dont have to attend court as the whole sorry incident will be shown to a packed court house, i might ask if i can give evidence with a bin liner over my head via video link.
