Billy no mates stand

Au contraire mon ami, je suis ton assistant as we say in French West Hartlepools

Might get yourself hanged using French round Hartlepool way.

TL:DR

You did a good job organising it - Frankenhealey was press ganged into role of continuity manager - I was only offering assistance so that he felt less uncomfortable with taking on such a high pressure role - I only did that because I like to have somewhere to park my car

I have no morals at all but Frankenhealey makes very good gin and I'm partial to gin

Personally I would prefer it if you "Pick your toys up from the corner" and carry on as if "Le Exit" never happened

If you can't or won't do that then I don't give a "merde" if people call it a stand or a club or a curse word stick - whatever

PS please don't mention Blair again - politics are banned from RR

I think we should impeach old blue and  reinstate him as emperor...
He has no human rights,as Emperor’s are more deity than human, so that won’t be an issue.....🤣

Edit: Deleted.

Made me chuckle but probably not suitable for RR.

I think I saw sense just in the nick of time.

It would have been out of my control if it had been quoted.

Members of the Naughty Corner have frowned upon me for posting it. I went too far apparently.

I've been put on community service and am now a registered text offender.

As I sit and read this “thread” so far, I cannot but shake my head in sadness as to what has transpired. Speaking as a member who nobody’s seen hide nor hair of, I believe I embrace the original ethos of the club so wholeheartedly, that I missed this completely for four months and feel there must be a new and better way forward.

It is obvious that the ex-Emperador makes several valid points, but in the end, what did he leave us with? A barrel of the Philippines favourite brandy is what. No direction, no deep foundations, no legacy, as the pollyticians are wont to say. Now, that’s not to lay blame. No, when you’re dealing with a shambolic collection of people who form the rank and file of this austere organisation, what do you expect? Who can blame him for wandering into the sunset, muttering forlornly? Not me.

“Ha,” you think(?), “it’s all very well for him to criticise, sitting on his arris in the sun, supping ice cold alcoholic beverages at unfeasible hours of the morning whilst watching the totty trip-trap past,” and you may be right. However…

I have not been idle, no, I have not been shiftless. I have been diligent in seeking intelligence (someone else’s, obvs) and using this to see a way forward for this August body. And for this, my role model has, of course, been none other than the encumbered president of this great Republic.

I believe that the new Anti-Terrorism Bill that Mr. D signed into law just last Friday could, and indeed should, form the foundation for the future conduct of the club.

It’s simple:-

Anyone doing things with piston/sniff/party poppers, will be shot, without trial;
Anyone trying to scrounge parking space, will be shot out of hand;
Anyone attempting to write in a foreign language will be shot, twice. (Tagalog may be an acceptable defence here);
Anyone playing on deflated bouncy castles will, indeed, be shot. It's not like they're a moving target;
Anyone impersonating warmed over dairy products are pretty likely to get shot;
Ponging on your I-pid is perfectly acceptable but…
Anyone doing pretty much anything else will be sh…well, you get the idea.

So if that little lot doesn’t stiffen up a few backbones and get this here great club back on track, well, you’ll be shot!

The only problem, as I see it, is getting Mr D to take on the role. He’s a busy man, what with having to field strip the Presidential Webley four or five times a day, but, while he’s got it in pieces, I’ll get someone sacrificial to ask him.

May have to rename it the Duterte’s Mate’s Auto Club, but that amounts to the same as BNMAC, really.
