Handing over EOSM DFV

I was a gobby apprentice a long time ago, and got twatted royally for
the privilege by another mechanic after I was a bit lippy.
I thought 'well, I deserved that' and got on with my life.

Some months later I was attacked by him without provocation, so I got
the fucker banged up for assault.
With my criminal injuries payout I went to the states for a month.

Does squirty cream count ?!

Only once!! Fucking wuss.

When I were a lad and doing the customary prowl of Southend Sea Front
onna Saturday Night it was customary for groups of wandering yoofs to
exchange pleasantry's. This exchange was usually initiated by the Big
**** from one group asking the Little ****(me), "who are you screwing,"
and for the little **** to say something like "You, you Big **** and
what are you going to do about it."

It wasn't always the case that my buddies got to the ensuing brawl
before the Big **** though. The only bloke who I could rely on doing
that was my Dear Departed Mate Budgie and we continued to share the
occasional adrenaline excess, with me remaining unscathed, until about
ten years ago when he decided he was slowing up and it was hurting too
much. He died about 6 months later.

 

Never had you down as one of those...

Wouldn't have anything else.

I will be thinking twice about Cabergs offerings for me next one though
but whenever that is it will be a front lifter.

Mind you, if Platy ever offers me a place in his chair for a track day
I'll have to chat up some Spik about a solid one but other than that I
don't see it happening.

 

I've dropped a 16st rugby player in a brawl at a rugby club do (about
25 years ago) by smashing him on the top of the head with a full face
crash helmet and I wouldn't hesitate to do the same again if the ****
was using a much smaller person as a punch bag. It's amazing how much
you discount the potential outcome when it's a good friend taking the
hammering and you know the same friend wouldn't allow you to take the
punishment if the situation was reversed.

I'd feel a lot worse if I let a friend get murdered and didn't help
than if I turned someone into a vegetable by smashing them on the head
with my crash helmet. I really should point out that things would have
to be pretty serious for that sort of action to be needed and Robbo
inadvertently upsetting an oap by swearing isn't what I'd consider a
serious offence.

 

Much as I think Robbo can be a twat I don't think he does it on
purpose and that doesn't warrant a few people taking free shots at
him. He does need to be pulled up and told to consider others a bit
more or move on to a different circle of friends but if someone wants
to belt him then they should consider what he might do back and not
expect others to bail them out. I'll also add at this point that I
don't think Lozzo would expect others to wade in and give a hand if he
was so pissed off he gave the idiot a clip.

 

Andy Bonwick says...

Whatever I'd have done, I'd have done alone. I don't ever expect others
to bail me out.

10 years ago I'd have had no hesitation about putting a chair across his
head, but I've mellowed and I had no intention of giving him a clip,
that would have been counter-productive. All that would have done was
put me down as the violent bad guy. I was all set to go back and give
him a proper mouthful and spell out exactly what I and many others have
thought for a good few years, then ask him to apologise to the lady he
was offending and leave.

You're dead right in that he needs to find a new circle of friends, he's
outstayed his welcome at the E/BOSMs for far too long imo. It's been
spelled out in no uncertain terms time and time again over the past 3 or
4 years, but he's too fucking thick to understand.

 

Son wants the mugging case to get to court soon, not out of any sense
of helping society by getting a bunch of violent robbing idiots banged
up in a cell with Bubba, simply for the money - mercenary little sod
is adding up, black eye x pounds, bleeding in eye, x pounds, squished
nose x pounds.

 

I'd agree with this. When I arrived he tried to give me a bit of a
mouthful then said I should buy him a drink. I just told him to ****
off, I'd do what I wanted, when I wanted to do so. He got the idea and
went back inside to be billy no-mates.

 

Divided into equal installments payable over 72 months. It'll keep him
in Mars Bars for years.

 

hmmmm

 

Having read through this thread from the start, I'm not sure why it
wasn't titled "Robbo is a big poopy-pants" right from the beginning.

Frankly, I'm both surprised, and a little disappointed, in what I've
read here recently.

By mocking his pink bike you mocked his manhood and led him down the
path to self mutilation.

You should be ashamed.

I should? I'm pretty impressed with myself actually. I rock.
