land of lard

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

did we ever get an answer about "the land of lard" from before the wee accident this moring?

what the hell was von on about? :wink:

did we discover if he meant the north of england generally, or the leeds/manchester/m62 corridor?

and when was it he used that expression?

i agree with the sheff bit, but not sure about the land of lard being the
entire north of england, after all, von's only made it north of leeds 2
or 3 times in his life.

i guess the only person who really knows is von, and since he is unable
to communicate with us, mere pond life, in any way, shape, or form, we'll
never know!

as a side note, shopping with von must be really really, erm,
interesting. i reckon he's get a glove puppet called mr waterlily and the
conversation goes a little something like this:

von enters shop with mr waterlily, stands at counter waiting for the pond
life (or shop assistant as we know em):

von: so mr waterlily, could you enquire as to weather these 'things' can
furnish us with the provisions we require for tonights festivities.

mr waterlily: oi!! scumbag, 2 bottles of vodka and a loaf of bread pronto
tonto.

von: thankyou mr waterlily, we may now retire from this drab location.

mr waterlily: here's your f**king money leeching scumbag, go on, p*ss
off.

etc etc etc.

or how else does he communicate with pond life??? answers on a postcard
please to: the reptile house, blah blah blah!!!

ok pond life, your turn...
