Hurry - while stocks last!



I was thinking of having some official F-C T-shirts made up.

They were recently asking for T-shirt slogan suggestions on The Word website, and they were either brown-nosing Mark Ellen and David Hepworth or utterly ridiculous. My suggestions – like everything I say on that blog – were roundly ignored. So I thought, why not do my own?

Of course you'll have to make them up yourself – they’re not real! But if I were to launch a line, these would be the slogans appearing on my T-shirts.

They might make you some new friends, you never know.

Choose from the following:


GREETINGS TO THE LADY MAYORESS

ANNE STORMS OUT AFTER BLAZING ROW

WHAT’S HOT, MARION?

I DIDN’T KNOW I LOVED YOU TIL I SAW YOU ROCK N ROLL

IF NOT NOW, WHEN?

MAJOR BARBARA

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE MAD TO WORK HERE – BUT IT HELPS!!!

CRUMPETS ON THE TROLLEY

I'VE BEEN TO NAM - I KNOW WHAT PAIN IS

SHE BRAKES FOR RAINBOWS

HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN MELLOW?

JOLLY GOOD FUN IN REDCLIFFE GARDENS

MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

OUTSIDE IT’S 1971

I've seen you PM. You're a bit of a fixture there.

Thanks for your suggestions both of you. All considered.

I like those, very much.

Mine would probably say "Is that IT?" or "This is IT!" , depending on my mood. Or "Double Scoop with Sprinkles", if I was in another frame of mind altogether.

Don't be so literal, you sanctimonious git.

Why does every Word thread turn into a hand-wringing pit of self-righteousness? Jesus.

Sorry, I'm obviously a bit thick. What did your comment mean then if I can't take it literally.

The sanctimonious git

Read my reply to your comment on the word thread.

I mean the risks they take mean they're asking for trouble. I'm not setting out to kill anyone.
