Things you want to share with P&B

The only time I have seen the phrase 'Bronx Cheer' is on a whoppie cushion. I think this is a fantastic phrase and should be used more. Have any P&Bers encountered this in outside the world of whoppie cushions and do any of you use the phase yourself?

Was munching a (blue) Bounty with a cup of tea when the phone rang.

Once the call was over, I went to pick up the Bounty paper to put it in the bin, thinking I had finished it...

STILL HALF A BOUNTY LEFT!

:thumsup2

Yup, days don't come much better round my gaff! :cheers

I'm also a fan of this. One of those wee moments that sound trivial almost the second you utter them but truly pleasing nonetheless.

My own moment worth sharing is that I have a date with a Jambo upcoming. First ever Hearts fan despite being an Edinburger, born and bred. My quandary: do I kid on (as a Killie & Scotland fan) that I'm Jefferies/Levein daft (I work with loads of them and they lap this shit up when I do it for laughs) or do I play it straight, as etiquette suggests on a first date?

ETA Just noticed you're a Jambo Paranoid Android, perhaps you can help in return for me enjoying your Bounty tale? And also ETA, I've been on many dates with many diddy team supporters and the football chat's easy. Just something about Hearts fans that they're a bit more precious than the rest of us. Just in case anyone thought this was an odd request of how to talk football on a date. Any help will be gratefully received.

Be Jefferies/Paulo Sergio daft - Levein? Not so much.

Remember to report back here with your findings.

edit: I guess what I'm saying is, if you want her to, er, 'lap it up' just say what you say to your work mates.

Ah, romance! :wub:

As football personalities go I was quite the Sergio fan. I may be able to spin this to suggest I thought he was highly tactically aware and his team selection suggested as much. Then again, I may end up in a Shiels/Sergio row and anyone who can't accept Kenny as the WUM he is is unworthy of my affection.

I will, of course, report back on my findings. I hear it's an odd Jambo exception in a family of Hibees, already my interest's piqued.

Thanks for your help PA!

Just make sure not to 'pique' too early! ;)

Sorry - I just assumed your were a lad - how sexist of me - I really must apologise! :lol:

I'll forgive you mainly due to your helpful pointers and because I just spotted your "lap it up" edit. Hell, that's really good dating advice regardless of gender!

I wonder if the lucky young man in question reads Pie and Bovril?

It's almost like you read mind... I posted half looking for advice in dealing with Jambos and half trying to flush him out, as I have my suspicions... Time will tell. If he wants to spend half the night laughing at The Rangers (as his moves so far suggest) then I'm rumbled! Ah well, there have been stranger first dates.

Let me know if I need to buy a hat! :)

Talk about World War One and your admiration for the Masons.
