  1. You know how pedantic I can be , LOL , but Tagalog is, or was, also written in other scripts to Latin alphabet, such as baybayin and Sulat Tagalog. All the Filipinos I know speak Taglish, a mixture of Tagalog and English. Slightly off topic but one of my god daughters who is half Welsh half Filipina qualified for the Ironman World Championships in New Zealand as an Asian Champion . She did extremely well seeing as she’s in her 30’s , a mother of twins and a full time dentist, not a professional athlete. The Aussies and American professionals were to much for her, bu
  2. Yeah, it does look more Thai than Tagalog. I need to brush up on my Austronesian dialects ! LOL ! Cheers.
  3. Me, the dog, the lamp and an hour or two out at night. The allotment. My man cave. All different but equally pleasing . Cheers.
  4. I’m particularly pleased with my cover version “wor uptoon lass”. Cheers.
  5. Looks like Tagalog, Thailand . Cheers.
  6. It’s a shame the two Luke’s are in the same half of the draw. They are easily the two best players in the world. Cheers.
  7. I’ve had tragedies in my life that I wouldn’t wish on any man, mate, so a bit of gentle ribbing by good lads on a hunting site makes me smile ! Lifes to short, especially at my age, to be angry or bitter about things that don’t matter in the grand scheme of things. Have a great new year and go easy on the sangria…or not ! LOL ! Cheers.
  8. I also got some export strength vodka and gin; 50% and 47 % respectively. Theyll probably last me until next Christmas ! Cheers.
  9. Fame at last ! LOL ! Anyway, I’m glad I’ve brought some fun to the festivities ! Heres one of my gifts; A Newcastle themed bottle opener for the man cave. Cheers.
  10. “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” mate ! Stylish, very stylish ! LOL ! Cheers.
  11. He went back to school abroad a few weeks ago, but he called us yesterday. We are planning on going to see him for his birthday in March. Already ordered the Newcastle and Real Madrid kits for him ! Cheers.
  12. You’ve got to be able to take a bit of ribbing….someday you may want to give some back ! All the best for the new year Stiffy ! Cheers.
  13. ‘Tiss the season of goodwill, Scotty mate, even to all those misguided Mackems ! LOL ! Cheers.
  14. Don’t be a follower Lenny mate; say something original . Cheers.
  15. You detractors will look as good at 72 ? LOL ! Cheers.
  16. My daughter in law who is Saudi , brought this for me when she was here a few weeks ago; Evidently it what’s known as a “shirket” . I never seen them when I was in Saudi, but it’s great here in Newcastle. ! Cheers.
  17. All the best , Mackem, wherever you are, from a fellow traveller. Cheets.
  18. Hey ! This is a man who trecked through the Khyber Pass and navigated the Hindu Kush in nothing but flip flops and a guhtra ! Have some respect ! Bismillah !
  19. “Innocent until proven guilty “ is a complete fallacy; otherwise no one would be held on remand; no one would spend a night in the police cells before coming up before a magistrate the next morning. Of course dangerous people and criminals need locked up, but “innocent until proven guilty” is nonsense, as is “policing by consent” . Who gave them consent ? I was never asked ! The police are the foot soldiers of the politicians, they owe allegiance to the government, not the people. We are simply the tax payers who supply the money for the politicians, none of who are actually qua
  20. “Man cannot live by potatoes alone…..” Cheers.
  21. First time I can remember just me and the wife for Xmas dinner, so we went for something different from the traditional turkey and had lamb instead; accompanied by a decent white wine, absolutely delicious ! Cheers.
  22. Rashford wouldn’t fit the club ethics at Newcastle. They all want to play for Howe and Newcastle. All the talk of Isak going to Arsenal etc is nonsense, he’s just signed an extension until 2027. Botman ready to come back, just Pope being out and we are almost at full strength just in time for the busy period. A new right winger in January and I’m hopeful of a top six place. Cheers.
  23. Who’s going to buy Rashford ? £330,000 a week and an attitude problem. Can’t see too many being interested. Cheers.
  24. PMSL ! Stop biting FFS ! Have I taught you nothing ? LOL ! Cheers and a merry Xmas to you and the family !
  25. Big fat gypsies can only blag it so far, then they get found out. Still, Fury hasn’t done to badly financially out of it, has he ? Cheers.
