BlueStar 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 (edited) I like the term gypistani. I don't think it's racist. 154711[/snapback] Sat around a few weeks ago making up new races for our mates by combining their 2 races (like wigger). Came up with things like "Blazian" (black asian) and "Wakistani (Welsh pakistani). Is that racist? Edited June 29, 2006 by BlueStar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6302 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 I'd imagine I'd be too nails for the hoppings tbh. 154636[/snapback] They'll have packed up and left by the time you found it tbh 154659[/snapback] You've heard about Sammy's time-keeping then? 154673[/snapback] His GPS-esque locational skills as well!

Lazarus 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 I find the term 'gypo' rather offensive. Can we please stick to "traveller", "pikey", or "filthy caravan dwelling human waste who would steal your fillings if you yawned in front of them." 154704[/snapback] thats reminded me of viz and the 'thieving gypsy bastards' thing they did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_NUFC 0 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 My Dad used to take us when we were bairns. Ghost Trains weren't scary at all. round the corner and a skeleton's head lights up and goes WAAAAAAAAAAW! and then the car stops briefly and some bloke in a gorilla suit (wtf have Gorillas got to do with ghosts?) would ruffle your hair. The first time I went on the Ghost Train, I remember being very disappointed. I had a similar feeling when I went on the Phantom Manor ride at Euro Disney. What a heap of shit. Quite elaborate and had special effects and stuff but still about as scary as the Ghost Train at the Hoppings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 There' a well known tramp from Walker who gets some work up there every year, he's called "Divvy John". Last year i passed the ride he was working on and he was blowing a whistle and shouting at the top of his voice "if your name's not John your not getting on", I often wondered why they call him Divvy John but this confirmed it for me.

Geordie Boyo 23 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 He might have saw you coming towards him and thought well rather then go through the embarrassment of telling you your not tall enough to get on he'd make something up. I'd say Considerate John, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
