Quote of the day |
|
Papa
Barker |
Dug
up perfectly preserved at a roman burial site near Watford Gap, nowadays the
site of the first UK motorway service station. |
“
I am awake thanks – tsk tsk, mumble, mumble, tosser etc etc” (see Alan
Piolet) |
|
Tits |
Love
child of a Hastings prostitute and Sussex property tycoon. Was adopted and
taught the guitar by a deaf, dumb, blind man. |
“We
can win this boys” – after the fall of every wicket |
|
Windy |
Came
to life when some stale pizza under a refrigerator was inadvertently mixed
with a spilled can of lager then exposed to the radiation from 1000 hours of
non-stop Sky soft porn channels |
Too
boring to repeat |
|
Zim |
Was
brought up by chimpanzees on the banks of the Limpopo. Learnt to play cricket
by whacking coconuts with crocodiles. Afterwards ate both the coconuts and
the crocodiles thus accounting for his unfathomably large posterior. |
“That’s
the bowling cup gone” – as Meccano spills a catch |
|
Pike |
His
mother and father were forced to improvise for their early love rendezvous’,
Pikey was actually conceived in a BT phone box behind Crawley station. |
“Thet’s
the bowlin’ cup gern” – as Zim drops a catch |
|
Meccano |
A
Robocop/Pinocchio-type cyber being, he was formed from his father’s old
Meccano set before being built up with synthetic flesh and and a computerized
brain unit. Unfortunately the programming is flawed, making Nick believe he
can bowl leg spin whilst actually delivering at least one 4-ball per over |
“I
heven’t gurt to do thut, yer jokin mhun” This phrase was repeated several
times during Meccano’s virgin tea, including 1.When asked where the milk was
2.When asked to unpack said tea 3.Washing up 4.Rubbish 5.Collecting tea money
etc etc. Giving your skipper out LBW can be expensive. |
|
Davross |
Greek
hammer thrower touring Scotland stops in an Aberdeen chip shop where he is
served haggis ‘n chips with a side portion of kebab by the chip shop owner’s
daughter. Result: McStavros |
Och

Alan
Piolet |
Another
of PB Tits’ Ansty imports, Van Brad is now under surveillance by Interpol
suspected of human trafficking |
(Hurling
the ball in to Papa Barker drowsing behind the timbers) “That’ll wake you up” |
|
Nabob |
Was
grown in a laboratory in Croydon from a bump unearthed by a truffling pig in
France. Subsequently brought up by two black boys who apparently taught Dave
that it’s OK to be a new man and show your feelings, hence that memorable
headline “Blackboys make Threader’s eyes water”. |
To
the opposing umpire as he comes on to bowl “I’m sorry if I smell, I forgot to
wash this morning” “Sorry
boys” as he delivers his first ball full toss “Lager,
bitter or coke?” as he buys his jug |
