Jumping on Johnny's bandwagon here...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The Wurzels were signing books at my local W.H Smiths once, but the cheap bastards made you pay for the book and the autograph. Needless to say, I did not get an autograph.

It’s rather shameful knowing that I was born and raised in Somerset, the land that gave birth to the Wurzles.

I heard that you can still be burnt as a witch for owning a computer in Somerset. "It be a magic box that spirits speak through".

Or go south off the Dorset coast to Portland Isle, where the *rabbit is believed to be very bad luck and to even say the word could send Portlanders into a stupor, fearing of what might happen. :eek:

Strange people in the West country.

(* The fear of rabbits is based on the fact that quarry men (Portland Stone) would often see rabbits emerging from their barrows immediately before a rock fall. Such rock falls often injured and even killed quarry workers; therefore, it is understandable why rabbits became associated with bad luck.)

*ahem* -josh, that would have been vaguely funny but summer preceeds the "fall" - or Autumn as we like to call it (perfectly good word ta-very-much).

and the west country is so dull as to defy description. for example "exeter -the capital of the south-west!" is no bigger than peterborough (only recently a city and then out of sympathy) and boasts nothing more impressive than the second largest collection of big issue sellers outside london.and scotland.

edit:bristol,if you were wondering...oh..you weren't.

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"
