slippy Posted February 6, 2007 Author Posted February 6, 2007 I was on Record Breakers years ago and asked Norris Mcwhirter what was the fast car in the world. BEAT THAT COWBOY'S Norris Mcwhirter came to our school to present an award to a lad for being the youngest person in the country to get a hole in one !

Buzz Billsberry Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Was having breakfast in hotel on Saturday morning, minding me own, looked up to see Johny Wilkinson walking across the room towards rest of the England rugby team who were also having their brekkie across other side of the room! Was surprised 'cos for some reason i expected him to be bigger! He would have been bigger if it wasn't for the fact that you weren't stood on the breakfast bar naked & lashed out of your head singing swing low sweet chariot! Buzz Quote
