Great idea for a thread this is  I said long ago that Will Timms was a wuss, a few drops of the red stuff and 'bang' out he goes (good job they don't do childberth, he'd never have recovered)  Tan Lin, Hmm? now it's been mentioned, all this if you rescue me you will love your child stuff, huh! who thinks they're the be all and all then eh? As for Janet, very responsible don't go near the woods says Dad, so not only does she leg it straight off for the trees, but she hoiks up her garments as well!! This is fun |

Michael's girlfriend: "You carry on like that, you're gonna kill me.."
Michael:(ranting, raving, beating at the four walls) "Take that, you raven-like creature"
Michael's girlfriend: "aarrrgh"
(but then he was crazy)
[glad I started this, didn't mean it to carry on quite like this!]

I agree about Polly. No way will she be on the shore - she'd have been breaking plenty of other hearts before he got halfway to Freeport!

Percy's Song - Hire a Lawyer you idiot!
Bonny Black Hare - why run out of bullets after one shot when you could use a machine gun?
I might be missing the point of that one

Ah yes, Percy's song. You hire a lawyer and lodge an appeal. You don't just go and see the judge in his chambers, annoy him so much by whinging on about the wind and the rain so that he throws you out, and then spend all night strumming your guitar.

Bugger off to sea for a bit, grow a beard and suddenly your one true love hasn't an idea who you are, spends all her time wandering down by Claudy Banks and then starts pouring her heart out to the first beardy sailor she comes across. Short sighted, or what? A lucky coincidence I calls it.
And as for those interned lads who spent their time roving the highways of Northamptonshire robbing the rich and the poor while the man who gave them away is merely bound for Australia? These days an angry mob would have split their time between waving placards outside his house, bricking his windows, and feeding chips to their menfolk through the gates of the prison.
London Danny? Bewildered wailings decrying a folk Jolene. Front him up man, front him up!
But, essentially, yes, fainting at the sight of blood? And My Own Dear Blood at that. You wouldn't catch Terry Butcher trying that on.

And what about Adieu Adieu. The plonker uses "being bought up in a tender state" and "bad company did me entice" as excuses for multiple robbery - well that's not going to get any sympathy is it? Sure, the distribution of wealth wasn't ideal in them days, and the young lad could have come up with loads of good sociopolitical reasons to let him off with just some community service or an ASBO. But no, the idiot just brags about his conquests, whinges a lot, and, just to make sure he really annoys everyone, says "Willow day, willow day" after every utterance. |

And that Poor Ditching Boy deserves to be poor if he's going to agree to not being paid. I suggest that he insists on a proper employment contract in future.

Oh yes on Claudy Banks, now just what was he up to eh? He just happened to be wandering around the docks being all in diguse!!! What I feel we really need to know here is what happened? He tells her that her laddy has snuffed it, watches her all in despair and tearing out her hair, then.... when he's seen enough.... it's Yoohoo darlin' it's me I ain't deaded after all (just having a bit of a larf gal). Was it really 'happy ever after', or did she do what many a red-blooded woman would do and leave him writhing in agony hanging on to his vitals I feel we need to know these things  |

that's the only way to restore virginity - or so I'm told! Most of the girls round where I grew up had had several grenadier guards too many for that to work... |

And back to Tam Lin, what makes him such a catch anyway - if he goes around falling off his horse he can't be much of a knight!
