It's just a little game....

firtile? Do you mean I firtiltated a new word?

[Brendan]

Firtile is a kind of low carbon, sustainable building material surely?

[Asset]

Of course it was a typo!!!!!!

[mockney piers]

Thems the ones Brendan; terrible for splinters though.

[Nero]

Er, sorry to tell you, but 'typo' is an Americanism. We Brits say 'literal', as in 'That first par contained several literals.' Gotten is American English. Got is British English. Forgotten, begotten, ill-gotten etc. are all standard British and US English. Nero

eek - I shall never use the word again.

Just back to the original game.... The naked drunk Elvis dancing man was great!!! You'd see him dancing in one window, and his girlfriend / wife / whore leaning over a table sniffing something in the other window!

> Old Fish factory? Where?

In another thread someone said the building around the corner from St Thomas More Hall was a fish factory once.

[Jah Lush]

Thanks for the info Ko. Back to Elvis. Oh I would have loved to seen that. Great entertainment for the punters outside the CPT obviously.

What is a fish factory?

[mockney piers]

It was, especially the crappy stereo playing vinyl at incredible volumes, with the needle jumping everytime he started bopping.

He'd usually be playing little richard and the like.

Hilarious entertainment such that I don't think anyone ever complained about the noise.

Total headcases the pair of them!!

[Jah Lush]

Marvellous! Anyone playing Little Richard at top volume is all right in my book. Wouldn't dream of complaining.

"Fish factory?"

Fish come from the ocean and sometimes the rivers.

Dam city kids these days.
