This is a slur meaning they are betraying their roots by being brown on the outside and white inside. This matter has caused great debate in the UK by raising the question of whether the case should hav...

Death of the Chieftain, Welwyn Garden City, England
Переглядів 12 тис.16 років тому
The Chieftain was most (in)famous pub in Welwyn Garden City. This is the story of its demise and eventual loss to the town. 5.5.10. There's a notice on the fencing to say a new pub will be built on the site. It's to be called The Chieftain. 22.6.10. The support structure's in place and the artist's impressions are nailed to the surrounding wall. It's going to be a lot smaller than the original ...

Bottle bang

My nephew decided to see how much air could be pumped into a plastic coke bottle. The original intention was for it to fly. I'm not sure why it's so fuzzy. It was taken on my cameraphone and after I powered off/on the phone, it began to behave.

    I remember scoring grass here in 95 and being allowed to smoke a joint In the boozer. I was with me gf and a mate and his gf. Then some guy punched someone and this massive fight broke out and it ended up under my table while we were getting stoned. We just sat chilled nonchalant while apocalypse now was happening. Afterwards a guy came up apologized for the chaos and brought us all a drink. I thought my mate was gonna piss himself with fear. Brilliant evening. I spent a year in Welwyn garden city and it was incredible place to live. I wonder if it is just as mad?

    Well it's a Mcmullen pub, so no loss there. I lived round the back in wheatley road throughout the 70s and 80s, amd remember the old boys staggering up the hill on Sunday afternoons. Occasionally falling in the hedge.

    I think it's because they are readily available, fairly inexpensive and give that big American car sound.

    There was no set number, although 20 was usually the maximum as any more would have made it difficult to keep the top (horizontal) shields all in line without gaps. There was no set number of Testudos, it depended on the situation and battle tactics. They were mostly used to get closer to an enemy position or building while deflecting the missiles (usually arrows) from above and front.

    @ConstantineJoseph 13 років тому

    If you would believe it, a Chinese warlord managed to procure Roman mercenary legionnaires and it is noted in historical sources that they were in a "tortoise" formation assaulting cities during the Chinese civil war during the "three kingdoms" period.

    The building of the new Chieftain is well under way. It's a lot smaller and further over the the right. My main memory is driving past one Sunday morning and having to avoid a door in the road.

    That's the start. The Cereal Partners (Shredded Wheat) site has been bought by Tesco and is due to be demolished. In fact, Tesco now own nearly all of Broadwater Road. They plan to make it into a leisure park.
