I suggest we have a "fag of the month" in which a member is assigned to be the butt (no pun intended) of jokes for that month. For the month of May, I nominate ... Westmarcher, mostly because ... because ... well, just because he's Westmarcher.

I should point out for non-English speakers (e.g. Americans) that in this case "fag" is a public school boy acting as a servant to an older boy. "Fag" is also English for a cigarette - hence the "butt" pun.

Sorry for any misunderstanding.

If Techno or some other unfortunate forum member hurts themselves in a stupid way If Techno is in distress does he have to hang his fag upside down?

I gave up cigarettes over 20 years ago...and I never hung any of them upside down anyway.  :P

Do we really pick on Techno?  All we do is point out facts.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

The Welsh have never acknowledged FACTS

They think they were a nation, not a collection of bandit chiefs - after all the ECW should properly be called the War of the 3 Kingdoms - refers to ENGLAND and the two minor one Scotland and Ireland.

Well, it certainly wasn't won at Waterloo - any more than Agincourt was won at Agincourt or Lepanto was won at Lepanto.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.
