Ee-Aw award 2007

[Herr von Puebik]

As it's gone a trifle quiet it must be about time for a new season :D Due to lack of sponsorship Kipling have been ousted and replaced by Ee-aw ::) Points awarded to anybody making the people around them say Ee aw Ee aw Ee awten 'ave done that such as cr@p shots etc :P

Rules similar to last season to reduce any confusion ::)

Cr@p shots
Mentioning Ev@rton
Wearing shorts (doubled if worn with a Donkey jacket)
Inappropriate remarks
Braying over high scores / wins etc
Other rules will be added as seen fit
Indiscriminate points awarded as deemed neccesary

Positions so far -

Division 1

Ian (The Colemanator) Coleman 130 pts for not knowing wot indiscriminate means

Division 2


Division 3

Mick (HVP) Loake 2 pts

Let's see who wants to win this one :P

[milhouse]

Cool - a new competition.
Just a point to mention......
Did you see the football on Sunday ? just in case you didn't here it is.... Everton 2-0 West Ham ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

[Colemanator]

And you can't spell wot what ::)

[Herr von Puebik]

Ee aw Ee aw Ee awten 'ave sed that :P

Twelve things you might not have known about Donkeys.

1. Most wild donkeys are between 102 cm (10 hands) and 142 cm (14 hands) in length.
2. Domestic donkeys stand under 91 cm ( 9 hands) to over 142 cm (over 14 hands) tall.
3. The Andalucian-Cordobesan breed of southern Spain can reach up to 16 hands high.
4. Donkeys are adapted to marginal desert lands, and have many traits that are unique to the species as a result.
5. They need less food than horses.
6. Overfed donkeys can suffer from a disease called Laminitis.
7. Unlike horses, donkey fur is not waterproof, and so must have shelter especially when it rains.
8. Wild donkeys live separated from each other, unlike tight wild horse herds.
9. Donkeys have developed very loud voices, which can be heard for over three kilometres, to keep in contact with other donkeys of their herd over the wide spaces of the desert.
10. Donkeys have larger ears than horses to hear the distant calls of fellow donkeys, and to help cool the donkey's blood.
11. Donkeys' tough digestive system can break down inedible vegetation and extract moisture from food more efficiently.
12. Donkeys can defend themselves with a powerful kick of their hind legs. Very useful when people sneek up behind them.

Oh - sorry - isn't this a Quiz ? ;D ;D ;D

[Herr von Puebik]

::) Well it didn't take long to get the usual suspects jockeying for top spot :o Milhouse braying AND mentioning Ev@rton ::) Colemanator for inappropriate remarks and Tommo for knowing too much about animals :o :o :o

Tommo for knowing too much about animals :o :o :o

Are you really surprised about that though ??? ;) ;D

[Sparky]

and Tommo for knowing too much about animals :o :o :o

Ee aw, Ee aw to know better ;D ;D

Just thought I'd get it in first for a change 8-)
and sorry about the stammer ::)

[Colemanator]

First off Tommo, i don't think this has got anything to do with donkeys, sorry an all, you seem to have a fascination with animals ::), it's called beastality i think, second. ee awten av sed that, those who know us northants people should know that this is how we talk, so when you speak this you will be adopting a northants accent 8-)

Well, I'll try and enter into the spirit of it, Colemanator, by offering up a couple of verses from Northampton's finest poet, John CLARE ;D :
This is an extract from The Shepherd's Calendar,month December.
You will note that no donkeys are mentioned or even alluded to.

The shepherd now no more afraid
Since custom doth the chance bestow
Starts up to kiss the giggling maid
Beneath the branch of mizzletoe
That neath each cottage beam is seen
Wi pearl-like-berrys shining gay
The shadow still of what hath been
Which fashion yearly fades away

And when its past a merry crew
Bedeckt in masks and ribbons gay
The 'Morrice danse' their sports renew
And act their winter evening play
The clown-turnd-kings for penny praise
Storm wi the actors strut and swell
And harlequin a laugh to raise
Wears his hump back and tinkling bell

Think there's a reference to Morris Motors in there somewhere, and also in the last line a mention for Herr van Puebik's friend who was lent money, but promised to pay him back "when he got straight". ;)

[Colemanator]

Braying over high scores / wins etc ???

What the hell do you mean by that Mick ::)

braying = the blowing of ones trumpet, it doesn't take long does it to reach that level of indecency on here.

[Chris_Sav]

I trust the Guernseymen are going to be handicapped for this competition????

Amazing how many of Tommo's twelve points apply to Guernseymen!! though I think 11) is more applicable to the quality of the beer.

Hmm, must get down the Oxfam shop for a duffle coat. ;D

Sav.

[Herr von Puebik]

;D Nice poem Tommo ::) and yes on hindsight the Guernseymen do have a distinct advantage but I'm sure you lot will see them off ;)

[Roo "Convoy!!"]

;D For all you Chris Moyles listeners out there, I think we should `adopt the 'Dominic the Christmas Donkey' song for the "ea-aw ea-aw" 2007 league campaign. Have a listen to the following:

members.shaw.ca/cybernana/funpage/dominick/dominick.htm
;D ;D ;D

[jel]

i heard that song this morning roo and wondered if it was what had given mick the idea of the ee-aw award. then i realised it's just because we are all donkeys anyway.

[Herr von Puebik]

No I listen to Radio 2 all day and I've never heard it :-/ Is Chris Moyles on early or summat :P

[jel]

yes he does the breakfast show, you not missed much really :-X

[nenecupper]

Hello Again Boys

Sorry I've not been on for a bit but I have been washing my hair.

Regarding the Ee-aw award, am I being a bit obvious, or is there the easiest joke in the world available when discussing EVERTON and DONKEYS???? ???

Anyway just off to practice for Monday............Think I'll start with a Fosters ;D

[Coleman Jnr]

just thought because everyone has an obsession with everton id let everyone know that they lost 2-0 to portsmouth today
ha ha ha

Ee-Aw Ee-Aw

;D

[jel]

great news lads, jims back ;D maybe we will get a leg on monday night after all ;) ;D

[Herr von Puebik]

I dunno Jel I think Jim's planning to be sober Monday cos he's practising on Fosters :-/

[nenecupper]

Cheers HVP

Jel not that i am one to bray but I am 5 from 5 this season. I think the fosters helps.
I hope we can play each other tomorrow. When you win I'll buy you one of Charlie's pernods.

Looking forward to a good night!! ;D

[Sparky]

I'm jealous of you lot - 'Pernod', 'Fosters', actually thinking you can win ;D, Oh and you have an HVP ;D.

[Chris_Sav]
