SatanGreavsie Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Yon mon should never go to Blackpool, for example Why? Because his name is Preston Bolton. or at least it was - the pic is from a Houston Chronicle obituary, but at least he died more pleasantly than he would have done in Gonzo's neighborhood. Challenge is to find other yanks who'd inadvertently run into a shoeing over here in the wrong place due to football-related misunderstandings. Or is Preston unique??

It's just a bit shit to be fair, alongside the wariness of any outsiders. If you are from the Southern States a couple of hundred years back,it could be your bag. If not, just save yourself a load of earache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
