Norwegian Would!

Got to our wedding tonight, more than 60% of our punters were from Norway!

Would they be a strange crowd to please?
Would they get what we do?
Would they have fun?

They weren't strange.
They got us.
They had fun.

Norwegian Would!

La Norvége; Douze Points!

    A large woman sitting at the back was heard to say: Hvem er denne full mann og hvorfor har han nei håret. JEG bare kom her å stå opp med det regne og nå JEG ønskede JEG fikk fått våt i stedet.

    Who can blame her?

    Aye, oh how you wept when Dana sang her wonderful ballad back in 1970. Tis just no the same with Jedward huh pal?

    Never mind Jedward, I'm like the Americans when it comes to mumbling popstars and just can't understand Cheryl Cole.

    Fancy wasting money on a restraining order when all she had to do was answer one of my 563 texts.

    While we're on this subject, Ryan Giggs today admitted to suffering from homesickness, saying that even though he's happy in Manchester, he does Miss Wales occasionally.

    Celebs eh? I don't see why the language barrier has resulted in Cheryl Cole being dropped from the American X Factor.

    Surely self-obsessed insincerity and a false smile is apparent in any country.

    Back in 98 me and ma mate took a 3 man tent to Bordeaux for the world cup gemme Scotland v Norway. The Norweigan fans were different class, we sang together, danced together and a even got a wee peck on the cheek fae a drop dead gorgeous blonde bombshell...we did however drink them under the table. The game? Oh aye it was 1-1. Good times.

    Aye, last two days on this particular fit. Early starts and late finishes for me and the lads for a few more weeks on this and the last job in Essex before we can return hame to civilisation and decent beer, not to mention seeing my new grand wean.

    My daughter and my son-in-law decided to flip a coin to see what their new born son should be called.

    He's now called Tails.

    Ryan; That's not the first time someone has shouted 'Fecker you!' at me, and I'm sure it won't be the last! :¬)

    Jimmy; A new grand-wean? Well that deserves a toast. Congrats to all, especially grand-daddy!

    'Tails', now there's a name. And sure aren't there enough 'Heids' about already?! :¬)

  37. Jimmy2 June 2011 at 16:14

    I was always partial to the heid during my time. Ironic really, the whole act is akin to taking a bow during the performance instead of at the end. The end being the crux of course.
