The Saddler's relate to Walsall being the centre of a thriving saddlery trade from the 18th century onwards.

Funnily enough i took my mastership there a couple of years ago!


And who the hell is Mr L?

be surte you know the difference between rugby union (all blacks' game, and the sort the play in the 5 nations and on twickenham) and rugby league (the sort the play in hull and wigan).....

nz is a rugby union country......

if youre that way inclined..ie like supporting the blokes rather than the sport, my gal is kinda taken with daniel carter...he did some underwear ads, im sure you can google and then oogle him....

kiwis and all blacks are the same kinda, except you can call the rugby league players kiwis too, but all blacks only refer to rugby union...

Just shout "hes playing the ball on the ground!!!" when there is a scramble for the ball and the other team has possesion, and "theyre slowing the ball down!!!" when there is a scramble for the ball and the all blacks have possession, and youll be rated right up there in terms of rugby know how... :)

the rest will follow....

Methinks am now professional Rugby supporter - even have the accent perfected(ish) "He's playing the ball on the ground!" (As oppossed to "It's in the air?!")

"They're slowing the ball down!" (As opposed to "Gosh, they're making that ball go jolly quick?!")

Am going to google and oogle; that sounds like essential research into the rudiments of the game. Way advanced from my "black is flattering?"

Are they rich? In their experience of life as a whole, obviously?! Would I be that shallow?

Irn Bru loop da loo? Loolah in Loolahville? Population - now two!!!

Take it get you get this bizarre "game" of mis-shapen men with a mis-shapen ball? Me? Am still totally confused! May just turn up in black to the nearest bar, like the Merry Widow, sit enigmatically at the bar smoking a More fag and sipping Bolly, whilst smiling at random men in shorts on the big screen.

yeah been watching union since I was a kid (on Grandstand), also we used to play league at skool (safer than dodging hockey sticks!!). So I know my "Gary Owen" from me "up and under" so to speak.....
Irn Bru is brain food for me - sends me hyper and gets the blood sugar right up - need it tonight as I have a job application to fill in and I have a stinky winky cold setting in - damn those kids!!! :mad:
