Hear all, see all, say nowt,
Eat all, drink all, pay nowt.
It's a long time remember
from January to December
So hear all, see all, say nowt,
Eat all, sup all, pay nowt
And if ever thy does owt fer nowt
Always do it fer th'sen.
When I was a right young lad
Me father said t'me
Seems to me thy's growin' up
Now what's thy goin' t'be?
It all depends upon th'self
It's only up to thee
I won't say much to you again
But take this tip from me...
Hear all, see all, say nowt,
Eat all, drink all, pay nowt.
It's a long time remember
from January to December
So hear all, see all, say nowt,
Eat all, sup all, pay nowt
And if ever thy does owt fer nowt
Always do it fer th'sen.
Save thy pennies while thy can
And just do what I say,
If thy doesn't keep thy 'ead
Tha'll 'ave some brass one day.
It all depends upon th'self
It's only up to thee
But there's one thing thy can reckon on
Thy won't get owt from me.
Hear all, see all, say nowt,
Eat all, drink all, pay nowt.
It's a long time remember
from January to December
So hear all, see all, say nowt,
Eat all, sup all, pay nowt
And if ever thy does owt fer nowt
Always do it fer th'sen.
Don't know what all this is about foreign beer, can't beat a good British ale anytime. Something like Old Speckled Hen or Old Tom, sadly we know live in a lager lout era.
Only ale I drink is newcastle brown.
Marstons ales are great
I just love the british. Whatabout Monty Python?
Its good but overrated in my opinion, I much prefer some Red Dwarf, Alan Partridge or Pheonix Nights to be honest.Quote:

If your a big Monty Python fan I suggest trying to get hold of Ripping Yarns. Its a series by Micheal Palin and Terry Jones. I much prefer it to any Python stuff.
In Particualr I recommend Escape From Stalagluft 112B and Tompkinson's School Days.
Cool. I'll have to give it a search. I've allways loved british humor since I was a little kid. i'm not sure why, but I do.
