Exhilaration

[Gittins Gal]

Wow.. Just been taken for a spin in a Ferrari Testarossa (one of the regulars in my local, in case you're wondering).

Quick blast up the A30 and back but the golden moment came as we turned onto Crewkerne High Street.

A group of youths that were stood on the corner did a double take and in slow motion their lips mouthed the word "Ferr-rarr-ee" in unison as we cruised past with Phil Collins' Sussudio blaring out.

What a buzz!

[pjclarke]

You had me up to Phil Col....

[xoggoth]

Phil Collins is brill. Testarossa SOUNDS RUDE! Why can't I find that Blackadder bit on Youtube? Even more incomprehensible than usual? Must be vodka, fags and lady from next door.

If you're going to make boring crap up with that sockpuppet, at least try to make it marginally believable.

I really don't understand what kick you get from lying like this.

Did he pull?

[BrilloPad]

Did you touch his gear stick?

Lip reading is hard.

For example, "Fer-rar-i" would, to somebody unskilled therein, look the same as "Fu… wan… kers".

Colin Dexter wrote an Inspector Morse novel, later adapted for television, whose plot was predicated on this ("The Silent World of Nicholas Quinn"); and David Lodge (who has himself suffered hearing loss) has used it as a device in several novels.

So they probably just thought you were a bunch of *****.

Could they have been mouthing "Fu......cukkers"?

The sockies are pathetic now, bring back Wilmslow.
