Oooh, culture(ish)

Been invited to this, today:

http://www.kirklees.gov.uk/festival/index.shtml

Wonder if they'll want me to give a talk on running a successful message board.

In fact immo, if you ever want me to give your students an insight into running stennymad, just supply train tickets and beer allowance and I'll be there.


First pick of the ging-herrs wouldn't go amiss, either.

"Huddersfield's BIGGEST winter event" ?

They do mean "only", don't they?

Why the invite? They're needing a fairy for the top of the tree?

I once got lost on the one way system in Huddersfield.One of the first new builds in terms of football stadiums as well.Since then they have gone downhill resulting in the worst example of the lot, the Britannia Stadium.

i love oodersfeld, was very suprised after driving round the ringroad how scummy it was, but the pedestrianised town centre with its bars and cafes is lovely when the suns shining, the old markets quite good too,and if you go in the sumer, they have a really huge caribean carnival, plus its only half an hour from mine. :-)

Stennymad is not a platform for your homophobia young man, please behave yourself.



Will be there on the Saturday, sev if you wish to buy me a drink. I'll be the one in a tutu, if mo is to be believed.

The girl who broke my heart was from Huddersfield. Why Phillipa, why? I'm off to cry over some photos of her.

Somewhere (probably Yorkshire) there's a psychiatric nurse called Philip(pa) sighing with relief and thinking "there but for the grace of God..."

Are Christmas tree references "homophobic"?

Phil wasn't a nurse. She did have long dark hair and a Yorkshire accent though. She could pronounce table properly, taaaaay-bull.


Don't play the ingénue, it was the derogatory term "fairy", not the christmas tree reference that was homophobic.

I expect only a real homophobe would find a perfectly innocent reference to a "fairy" as "homophobic".

Don't you believe in pixies, Crown?

That will depend on how much codeine they give you, Sev.
