chrisp65 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 it wasn't personal to you xxx I just grew up in a house where all that stuff was played continuously, like some early Guantanamo experiment. In reality, musical taste is a personal thing and nobody can crit other people's taste. But I had just been talking to my brother so a little bit of metal hate slipped out! It's taken me 30 or 40 years to finally appreciate Slade. Who knows, I might even like Queen before the sun finally sputters out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Been in Newcastle all day on the hoy, and trying to read through everything I've missed on VT since then seems impossible, especially as we've made a signing since I've been away. Anyone care to summarise what I've missed? Does on the hoy, mean on the piss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ender4 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 by force not choice I'm intrigues what an Olympic superstar does months after winning a medal. People were talking about TV opportunities and such at the time, did things like that come about, or was that all very short-lived and its back to normality now?

villaglint Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I went on a couple of websites to look at buying some lingerie for my missus the other day. Now every website I visit has pictures down the side of incredibly hot birds wearing thongs. Not complaining and there is no issue work wise as my screen is not overlooked but it is incredibly distracting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I thought hoy meant throw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frobisher Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Yes, as in, "I've got a nice new hoy for my sofa". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Yeah, "hoy" is a north east term for going out on the drink. Also it's used for as a term for throwing. Which can be confusing. "We gan oot on tha hoy, tha neet?" "Na man. Last time a wen oot wi you, I was hoyin' up all mornin'." Edited June 6, 2014 by dAVe80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC_Hitz Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Jesus wept. Sat in a bar with a girl I met the other night some dude sits opposite us. Shakes my hand and sits down. Boom, two man slaps in my face. I duck, catch him in the stomach and then the bar staff grab him and absolutely beat the living shit out of him in front of the punters. I've got a split tear duct but that was **** mental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8pints Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 In all seriousness though, I hope you're okay. The worst facial injury, maybe not the worst but the most irritating, was when I got hit in the face with a shotgun, I know there's worse injuries to receive from a shotgun, and it fractured my entire maxilla/maxillae. which is basically the entire middle of my face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
