I think he missed Norks!

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
the gamers he beats
are chained to their seats
and their livers are plucked out by hawks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
he is so wise,
he covers his eyes
when painting an Amazon's nawks.

There once was a gamer call Orcs,
who goes on historical walks,
he thinks he's a bobby,
but it's more of a hobby
- outlining corpses with chalks

I was going from Urban Dictionary.com. Is it an Americanism? If so, I apologise. 


It's called English for a reason - FSN

I had thought it was Australian, although widely used by Hugh Dennis in his impressions of the Duke of Edinburgh.

I typed 'norks' into image search...

did you know there is a website called 'bapwatch.com'?

(Bandwidth warning - do not try and get on the internet for the next few hours if you share a green BT street box with JAFO)

No. Do you recommend it?

Its TV screen grabs - one forgets how glorious the decolletage of Penelope Keith was in the Good Life era.

Ah,  Penelope Keith!   How true!

I have a theory about the Leadbetters.

Most of the time Margot was, well, Margot... BUT Every few weeks Jerry would come home from work on a Friday, and she would be waiting in one of those frilly/fluffy baby-dolls/etc that were 'sexy' in the 70s.  She would grab his tie and drag him upstairs to the bedroom, and he would emerge Monday morning an exhausted and broken man.

What a great prog that was.
(At the time, anyway !  )

Oddly enough we watched her last night in a recording of Death Comes to Pemberley playing Lady Catherine de Bourgh. Not quite so sexy now.

True of most of us, no?

Speak for yourself. Me I mature like a fine whine....
