Thing kicked ass. Cool little hand running all over the place. How cool would that be. You could mount a camera to the palm and invite a load of [barry-white]sexy ladies[/barry-white] round.

Those guys are Quins... how very odd...

Actually, the Quins ground isn't far from where I live... they're a rugby team, for those as don't know (i.e the Merry Cans among us)

[EDIT](http://www.diamondgeezers.org.uk/images/trews.jpg)

What... the.. ****...? Frankly, I'd like to distance myself from this site. These... people... don't know the first thing about being a diamond geezer... they're not even proper Londoners...

[EDIT 2] Though I did find this (http://www.diamondgeezers.org.uk/fun/whale.html), which I found quite amusing...

Um, but Dog and Bone is actually slang for a phone in the UK :p

Being a Geezer, means your abit "here", abit "whoa", "there".

A little bit whoa, a little bit whey, a little bit woosh woosh woosh... I'm a geezer, in I? I'll nick anyfing, me...


See this (http://www.powerage.demon.co.uk/fastshow/crafty.htm) for more info on being a geezer... and have a listen to this (http://www.spezzano.freeserve.co.uk/FASTSHOW/geezer.wav)...

[EDIT] Oh, and the diamond bit is describing the kind of geezer I am. It should be pretty self explanitory... it basically indiactes that I'm a diamond geezer, innit?

Blimey, it's so much easier when you're talkling to other londoners... good job Dekker knows what I mean...
