Giant Haystacks small claims acceptable….

Very acceptable, but no lyotard imo. Big daddy was an enigma, an unlikely legend of Saturday ‘sports’ entertainment. Never met anyone who met him. Did he exist? Certainly not on the same level of existence as the rest of us.

Very small giant haystacks claim, I used to date a girl who’s previous boyfriend was giant haystacks son - Noel. Noel Haystacks. She said haystacks himself was alright, quite quiet though. I think they ended up in the middle east, wrestling out there.

Noel Haystacks - what a great name! It could only be trumped if Big Daddy had a son called Wee Diddy. But I doubt it.

I loved Big Daddy when I was little, and absolutely fascinated with his real name - Shirley Crabtree!

Some of Werbeniuk’s alleged feats of drinking include: 76 cans of lager during a game with John Spencer in Australia in the 1970s;[2] 43 pints of lager in a snooker match/drinking contest against Scotsman Eddie Sinclair in which, after Sinclair had passed out following his 42nd pint, Werbeniuk was reported to say “I’m away to the bar now for a proper drink”;[9] 28 pints of lager and 16 whiskies over the course of 11 frames during a match against Nigel Bond, in January 1990 – after which Werbeniuk then consumed an entire bottle of Scotch to “drown his sorrows” after losing the match.[2]

And yet it’s suggested that snooker players are not athletes.

Wondering if that is the same car that once passed me in Southfields when I lived there (2001). It had Jimmy White or his website printed on outside!

Excellent!
When I was at the Laurent Garnier gig a few weeks ago me and my brother were dancing to this, as it reached its absolute peak some guy with a beard and a backwards baseball cap pushed straight past so he could start having a loud chat with his mate.
I’m still annoyed about it now.
