| the_bleeder | The Minstrel Wanderers posted on: 11/6/2003 1:53:31 AM A marvellous body of beasts priding themselves on being exceedingly ugly and repulsive to womankind. Sadly a number of them have been taken from us prematurely. RIP Michael Sheehan aka "Pigeon" , Brian Morgan aka "Drink or Die" Dennis Dwer aka "Twig" and Tony Smith aka "Sibbo". Stories of this fine body of gentlemen to follow. Most are acquainted with the venerable Charles Mitton. |

replied on: 11/6/2003 3:18:19 PM Ah yes, the Minstrels. They once went through a phase in which they attempted to cover the world with little paper stickers bearing the words "Minstrel Wanderers, Super Slobs" - applying them to such locations as the Vatican, Lenin's Tomb, and Sydney Harbour Bridge. My fondest memory of them at their peak, however, is of their Saturday lunchtime bonding ritual in the Vine, which consisted of them all standing in a circle and speed-drinking rough cider until they were sick. Top beasts. |

replied on: 11/6/2003 4:58:01 PM Yes the Saturday lunchtime session before a Blues home game in the Vine. If anyone was late for the "barrel" he or she faced a kangeroo court and was more often than not punished by having to down a pint of Snowball in one. One gentleman known as "the Gossum" once paid a serious price for adding a bottle of Woodpecker to the barrel of cider having to drink 8 pints of snowball. One was also marked for ones vomit with points being given for content and presentation. Most Minstrels were to be found fast asleep on the grass bank at the back of the old Spion Kop at St Andrews during the game. Mad Malik would occasionally wander into the Vine when it was in full swing and wander out again bemused at the nutty behaviour inside. |

replied on: 11/18/2003 1:56:52 AM I believe the printer also produced 500 "I love Zola Budd" stickers for Acocks Green´s foremost "Greek fish and chipshop and Victorian lavatory" spotter who can still be found reminiscing about the "big L" Locarno |
