I don't find any accent sexy really. So no.

I do say Bloody quite a lot. Yes.

I can't say I have ever used Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in my vocabulary, but I am young yet.

I would say that N Gallagher is one of the top 5 wankers on the island.

We are not issued with the Clash greatest hits at brith, good idea though.

I am not sure what the bobby swat team is, so I will say no?

I don't really know why we say arse but I think it may have something to do with this fast show sketch. The Fast Show - ARSE - YouTube Classic...

I have never heard taint before... So I am not even sure we use that.

This one is long, but you need to watch it. UT's Pride of the Southland Band performing the legendary Salute to the Hill.

Not keen on the singers voice on the first ones I am afraid.

However the Pride of Southland Band never ceases to amaze me. I have never seen a marching band before....

The talent level is just so incredible. Being a drummer myself for the last 6 years I really appriciate the rudiments that the drummers are using during the marches.

Can I ask, how do you play in the pride of southland? Is it volunteers or is it like people doing a music degree at the UNI???

Thanks for that link Sly, makes me want to come to TN even more. Do they do that outside before every match??

You know the costumes they wear in the band, where does that tradtional attire come from, not as in where do they buy it, like what were the costumes origionally designed for? Army? I really like that look....

At the risk of sounding very dumb, I will ask anyways. Why is Tennessee called rocky top? Is it because the area in Knoxville is particularly mountainous?

Forgive me guys, I'm still pretty new to this team, so I am still learning.

I have never had a "Blood sausage" And I think you meant Black pudding not blood pudding. I don't like black pudding.... It's a northerner thing...

Ricky Gervais is more popular, and for valid reasons. The Office.

I don't know what a Blumpkin is I am afraid.

I think it's by audition. Used to be. They offer scholarships to some. You don't or didn't have to be a music major. It wasn't a requirement. Actually, when I was in high school, which was a hundred years ago, you might get recruited to audition for the band if you were good enough.
