Shirley Bassey is vile.  Have you ever heard her speak about stuff? 

Good lungs though.

He gets right on my pipples!  *shudders*

anyone with a voice  like that is a Welsh Icon...now Zeta Jones, you can shove up yours or anyone else's arse.  She may have won an Oscar for her musical with the yanks, but her voice wouldn't cut it in the Upper Cwm Twrch Rugby club on a Friday night

it'd the lungs that count bateman

if Hitler could have belted out Big Spender in a sequin frock like her, we'd have given him the benefit of the doubt

Bit like the English do with their wife beating, philandering, racist, rapist footballers

 Think I'll decline that invitation, ta very much

Nooo, just misguided. and he wouldn't look good in black knickers.

Are you implying that those in England find the behaviour you have described as acceptable or the official bodies who employ and support those guilty of it?

Going by the amount of Gazza worship I see in the media and from fans I would assume that quite a large amount of people see wifebeating as less important as the ability to score a goal

DS I cant speak for everyone, but personally and for the English that I know I can safely say that kind of abusive behaviour is certainly NOT accepted or tolerated in any way.

And I don't know anyone who worships Gazza either, but I'm well aware of what he put his missus through. She played a part and did him no favours cos she kept going back to him. I have sympathy for whatever he's going through but it still doesn't excuse what he did to her.

I dunno anything about football or footballers...aside from what makes gossip columns...and based on that I hate them all equally

hmmmmmmmm

Why the hmmmmm? It's true.

Much as I love ya missus I gotta respectfully disagree with you there.

She was probably in full on Stockholm Syndrome, in fact I think she still is...

I'm not postin and runnin - just gotta do a few bits and talk to another human via telephone and stuff ( OMG I am actually doing stuff away from the internet. Who knew? ) Be back in a bit but would love to carry on this convo DS (and Lecs!) xx

Show off!

the upping the fault of the victim merely trivialises and lessens the actions and guilt of the abuser

That stance always pisses me off and just highlights what i said earlier in jest  , and seeing as this thread is supposed to be about  Dave, i shall leave it there..

On a lighter note,,,don't think I can forgive you Dance Set...telling me to shove the sainted beauty from Mumbles where the sun don't shine.

The way her age is shrinking she'll be minus 14 years in no time, then she'll slip up there without you even noticing

Leccy.

Dame Shirl's a cow.
I know someone who had a summer job as a chambermaid in a big posh hotel, and SB was staying there.
The manager sent my acquaintance and one of her colleagues up to Shirl's suite with a huge basket of flowers to welcome her, and as they went along the corridor, they could hear her screeching at her assistant.
They knocked the door, there was a pause, and then the flower of Tiger Bay was heard to scream: "Tell them to eff off!"
The assistant opened the door, snatched the flowers and slammed the door in their faces without even a thankyou.
They never got one, either, even when Shirl had calmed down. All they got was a huffy demand that Rich Tea biscuits must be in her room AT ALL TIMES.

Witch..

aww it wasn't aimed at your arse Fairfax,,,it was meant to imply a generic or symbolic arse.

I'm sure yours is too pert and petite to fully encompass Ms CZJ

Very interesting Demantoid.

You speak the truth DS

I adore Shirley Bassey 

she's just gone up in my estimation by 3000 % 

none of your fancy hollywood Swarowski encrusted biscuits  for our lass....she's still down wid da people

My Dad proposed to her.

She said no, obviously

Wow! Nice one Papa Lecs 

Whats Dave got to do with negatively generalising about the English

She wasn't down with the two poor little teenage chambermaids who got sworn at.

Sean Connery, on the other hand... he also stayed at this hotel at another time, and asked my acquaintance to fetch him something from the nearest corner shop one evening. He said please, thanks, and gave her a £50 tip!

Oh really was it a really dodgy proposel??

It was in a hotel bar a billionty years ago, being the arrogant womaniser confident chap he is, he asked her to marry him.  She laughed and said "No, but you can buy me a drink"...and thus ends the tale.  Still, shy kids get nowt, as the saying goes

any excuse will do


(well until some of you get a sense of humour at least )

He saves those for the first date, I'd imagine

Dancey, I'm waiting for someone to mention sheepshaggers..

check the world cup threads Dem

Me too I'm equal opportunist like that

Really? Oh..
You know what the retort is, though. When these sheep are all nicely full of Welsh 'love', we ship  them over the bridge and sell 'em to the English. To eat.

ok i'll go and find my sense of humour

a friend of mine used to be his nanny...apparently he was a right c*** too..........and he demanded Duchy Originals be placed on his pillow at all times too



(ok might have made the last bit up )
