Oi! another Brit joins us!

[arthurdent]

And how about a hearty welcome to our newest member from somewhere in the English countryside: Will Vernell! Crikey! Another bloody Brit!

Many of us remember Will in the ZC forums away back then but he's been MIA for some time...hopefully he'll be more active here!

[bigbaddad]

Hello Will!! Long time no see.Where are you?Post something will ya?Jeff aka bigbaddad

[freddythefox]

[bigbaddad]

Well Freddy you can't hold it against ol'Bob.He is after all from Canada!! bbd

Just kidding Bobby!

[arthurdent]

surrounded by Limeys and Yanks...what did I ever do to deserve this? ;D

[Blue]

Come on, you know you love us all!!!

[bigbaddad]

OH Hell Bob I love the Canadians.My ex and current wife have a bit of french Canadian in them.I just wish someone would set you guys all straight on the bacon issue.If I want ham I would order ham.If I want bacon I sould get bacon.bbd

[arthurdent]

yeah I do love you wankers after all....hahahaha....now about that bacon issue Jeff? here's the simplified rundown:

what you call bacon is what we call bacon and the Brits call streaky bacon.

what you call Canadian Bacon we call back (or peameal if rolled in it) bacon and the Brits simply call bacon.

At least tea is the same over there as it is here: tea leaves steeped in a pot of boiling water...not some powdered mix added to cold water and ice!

[bigbaddad]

Don't drink the tea!I had family involved with the Boston tea party during the Revolution and it is still a bad subject in my family.bbd

[arthurdent]

hahahaha...good one Jeff! Now where is that little wanker Will anyway?

[freddythefox]

i had relatives killed at the Boston tea party,i drink tea,get over it Jeff.as far as i knew we had smoked or un smoked beacon,whats streaky beacon??do you ever wish you was born a limey or a yank bob.English bob or bob the yank.suits you sir.

[wvernell]

The little wanker is alive and well! Sorry to have been gone so long. Uni has kinda taken over my life at the minute. Its great to see you all again. How has everyone been? Hope all are well. I will try to be more active but I wont make any rash promises.
Just to let you know I love bacon, don't like tea and am hoping Jeff got his ZC shirt in the end before you did yourself an injury.
Great to be back in the Zippo community.
Be back soon.
Will

[bigbaddad]

Will,Its good to see you again.It's been a while.I hope all is well on your side of the pond.Jeff

[Blue]

yeah welcome Will!

And it seems that not many member ideas (like the shirt) make it very far over at that other club

[arthurdent]

hmmm...what if we made up a bootleg? oops! Did I just say that?
