CQN Vanessa Riddle Fundraiser

1180

I’m enjoying the chat as much as anyone these days but I know you all remember what were really about as a club.  We have an update on the CQN Vanessa Riddle pop quiz fundraiser which will be held at Jury’s hotel, Glasgow on the evening of Saturday February 11.

The great news is that Frank O’Hagan has agreed to come along and do a set to close the quiz off. Frank’s third CD – Green Light to Freedom – will be mixed and mastered in the studio over the next month. Frank is also doing a concert with his band in the Backstage at the Green Hotel, Kinross on Saturday 18th February. Details are on Frank’s website web. Frank is a top class musician is a terrific live performer. He is also a lovely guy, so we’re just absolutely over the moon to have Frank along. Our good friends at Carling are donating some prizes too, which is also excellent news.

We have some spaces left so if you want to come along, visit Taggsybhoy’s music quiz homepage and contact him with your team name and numbers (max of 6 to a  team). He will let you know if you are successful. It is first come, first served. Vanessa Riddle Appeal

I’m off to contemplate the false value of cheap laptop hard disks. One day lost and counting, damn you HP!

  1. That statement from the Vanguard Bears beggars belief.

     

    But then, they are the same mob who worship Lenny Murphy and his kind.

     

    Hunbelievable.

    Sorry to keep harping on but why state….” I will let you know by 5pm”…then go radio silent?

    If I get an answer back from taggsybhoy,your welcome to john us on the night.

  6. Is ole BSR not painting the John as we speak?

     

     

    He probably thinks he’s Michaelangelo, painting the cistern chapel, he should be giving the lavvys in the Gazebo a lick of paint, pure mockit by the way.

     

     

    Good to hear you are OK, Bourne, I’ve been off the blog all week too but obviously I’ve not been missed like you!! :-((

  7. My view is that we should take the time to remember Reamonn, and make a contribution the goodchild foundation in his honour.

     

    We can worry about the huns later, and as starry knows, we have lost an angel child recently, and my thoughts are with her and the family.

     

    Cough up bhoys!

    We are now being told thet for some time the Rangers’ account has for some years contained an inflated value for Ibrox which has now reached £140m. I have it on good authority that the purpose of this inflation was to avoid administration. I wonder if S.F.A. are at fault for accepting the validity of these accounts?

     

    ========================

     

    The valuation of Ibrox, the two “contracts” of EBTs, the granting of a UEFA licence this season. the protection of Rangers by Dallas

     

     

    The SFA are up to their knees in the blood of Scottish football.

    You must have missed the town crier(bada bing)

    One of the reasons I want us out of this hell hole is that any newco will have them more rabid than ever, it will all be the fault of Timmy, they blame us already for their ails, just think what they will be like if they have to suffer playing in the lower leagues.

     

     

    ernie lynch

     

     

    I have thought long and hard about a newco into the spl, and as yet am unsure if it would be a good thing or not.

     

     

    Moraly it’s wrong, for every reason under the sun it’s wrong, just have a niggling feeling that if it were to happen, and there is a distinct possibility that the brothers will aid them in their quest, this might help us with uefa and allow us a lever with them.

     

     

    The talk from Hannah tonight tells me that they are craping themselfs about the hun going to the wall, and they could well be left behind, the hun will never get an invite into england, the party they had in Manchester put paid to that.

    Was that you with the JJJs.if so your welcome,depends on Taggsybhoy coming back with the “yes it’s okay”answer.I’ll still be there,drinking in the bar if there’s no room in the hall.

  15. with the hun civil war warming up nicely and administration all but assured, we’ll never have a better time to leave them behind.

     

     

    If the english will not have us then let us try elsewhere but its time to get out od dodge and leave them behind in whatever form they find theselves in.

     

     

    No time to waste. Its time to finaly ditch the o** f***.

    The sketch:

     

    (Cut to police dancing round Stonehenge a burglar is bound to a stone altar. Mix to picture of same thing in newspaper which is bring read by a chief constable in his office.)

     

    Chief Constable: Now this is the kind of thing that gives the police a bad name, sergeant.

     

     

    Pull out further to reveal police sergeant in long shimmering slim-fitting ladies evening gown, diamanté handbag and helmet.

     

     

    Sergeant: I know, sir.

     

     

    (Intercom buzzer goes on desk.)

     

     

    Chief Constable: (depressing knob) Yes, Beryl?

     

     

    Beryl: (male voice) Attila the Hun to see you, sir.

     

     

    Chief Constable: Who?

     

     

    Beryl: Attila the Hun, sir.

     

     

    Chief Constable: Oh botherkins! Er, constable, go and see to him will you?

     

     

    Sergeant: What! In this dress?

     

     

    Chief Constable: Oh all right, I’ll go.

     

     

    Sergeant: Oh, I have got a little green pinny I could wear…

     

     

    Chief Constable: No, no, no, I’ll go. You stay here.

     

     

    Sergeant: Oh goody! I can get on with the ironing.

     

     

    (The chief constable walks through the door into the reception area of the police station. There is a policeman behind the counter and a little insignificant man is standing waiting.)

     

     

    Chief Constable: (to policeman) Right where is he?

     

     

    Beryl: Over there, sir.

     

     

    Chief Constable: Right, er, all fight sergeant leave this to me. Er, now then sir, you are Attila the Hun.

     

     

    Attila the Hun: That’s right, yes. A. T. Hun. My parents were Mr and Mrs Norman Hun, but they had a little joke when I was born.

     

     

    Chief Constable: Yes well, Mr Hun …

     

     

    Attila: Oh! Call me ‘The’, for heaven’s sake!

     

     

    Chief Constable: Oh well, The… what do you want to see us about?

     

     

    Attila: I’ve come to give myself up.

     

     

    Chief Constable: What for?

     

     

    Attila: Looting, pillaging and sacking a major city.

     

     

    Chief Constable: I beg your pardon?

     

     

    Attila: Looting, pillaging, sacking a major city, and I’d like nine thousand other charges to be taken into consideration, please.

     

     

    Chief Constable: I say, excuse me, Mr Hun. (he takes his hat off, removes his moustache, puts it in the hat and puts the hat back on) Have you any objection to taking a breath test?

     

     

    Attila: Oh, no. No, no, no, no.

     

     

    Chief Constable: Right, er, sergeant will you bring the Hunalyser, please?

     

     

    (The constable produces a breathalyser.)

     

     

    Beryl: Here we are, sir.

     

     

    (Hands it to the chief constable.)

     

     

    Chief Constable: Er, how’s it work?

     

     

    Beryl: Well he breathes into it, sir, and the white crystals turn lime green. Then he is Attila the Hun, sir.

     

     

    Chief Constable: I see. Right. Would you mind breathing into this Mr Hun?

     

     

    Attila: Right. (blows into bag)

     

     

    Chief Constable: What if nothing happens, sergeant?

     

     

    Beryl: He’s Alexander the Great!

     

     

    Chief Constable: Ha, ha! Caught you, Mr A. T. Great!

     

     

    Attila: (who is now Alexander the Great) Oh curses! Curses! I thought I was safe, disguised as Attila the Hun.

     

     

    Chief Constable: Oh perhaps so, but you made one fatal mistake… you see, this wasn’t a Hunalyser… it was an Alexander the Greatalyser Take him away, Beryl!

     

     

    (Cut to letter)

     

     

    First Voice Over: Dear Sir, I object very strongly to that last scene, and to the next letter.

     

     

    (Cut to second letter.)

     

     

    Second Voice Over: Dear Sir, I object to being objected to by the last letter, before my drift has become apparent. I spent many years in India during the last war and am now a part-time notice board in a prominent public school. Yours etc., Brigadier Zoe La Rue (deceased). PS Aghhh!

     

     

    (Cut to third letter.)

     

     

    Third Voice Over: Dear Sir, When I was at. school, I was beaten regularly every thirty minutes, and it never did me any harm -except for psychological maladjustment and blurred vision. Yours truly, Flight Lieutenant Ken Frankenstein (Mrs).
