FAO ridgeway kid

I was certain that you were wendun, flirted with the idea that you were crashbang but realised there was too much quality in the posts and now wonder if you could be my old mucker zilzal. definitely wendun or zilzal...two different characters but both blessed with a good command of the English languag...

FAO: Kempo: do me a favour
(Preview)
K, if you can fight your way past the drunks in A&E please check on Zilzal. He's disappeared from all his usual haunts. He was prone to prolix and never used a word when ten would suffice but me and Dr.P are worried. God forbid he's in W's bunker.

Strange meeting
(Preview)
Not the Wilfred Owen poem but odd encounters with fellow Millers. I'll give you mine and it's 100% genuine. Mid 1970s and I'm helping out a mate who organised concerts at Lancaster University. Can't remember the band. I'm down a corridor by the stage door when a roadie appears wearing a Millers sh...

The return of Captain Kempo
(Preview)
In the last chapter our hero had left his old haunts to seek a new life in Banterland. Now he returns only to find the Shire has been taken over by a bunch of ex-pats aided and abetted by a few mental pygmies. On arriving Captain K is barred entry by the Perigord Kid who reads out a list of trumped up charges;...

Can anyone enlighten me?
(Preview)
What is the significance of the nice yellow icon which appears next to my name and no one else's? If it's an award of some sort I'm deeply grateful but doubt I deserve it.

The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies
(Preview)
Anyone seen it? I was going to give it a miss as I thought the second film was veering too much to trying to attract kids. However, IMDB ratings give this an 8/10. In two minds because the local cinema is a bit down market and last time I went I was surrounded by a family of trolls who talked and scoffed chi...

Pubs I hate
(Preview)
For me, No.1 is the Tabard. In 1970 I met a girl Saturday night at the Charade. I was completely smitten and arranged to meet her at the Tabard Sunday night. I had no money for bus fares so walked from the Bridge Inn where I lived all the way in an absolute downpour. She was there with her sister. I spent...

pain relief

For muscular skeletal pain I've tried em all. Some of em are somewhat effective and others ( especially over a course of several days) are superb. However, they come with significant health warnings and I can no longer take the best ones. Enter the honourable 'Tiger Balm'. Oh Tiger! You are a fierce...

Phrases I hate

At the risk of sounding cynical at this festive time of year I get really cheesed off when every time there's some calamity dozens of people and posters spout the ludicrous rubbish "Our thoughts and prayers are with them." No they are bloody not because a) Two minutes later you're back dis...

Gino
(Preview)
I spent ten years on MM and Vital arguing with g. In my view he was to music what Kempo is to medicine and that with a little more talent he might have made a half decent busker. That said, I miss the old rogue and there's no doubt he was a major influence in the early success of MM. I hope he is OK and if he stil...

Kempo, an unlikely apostle?
(Preview)
Kempo is putting in one heck of a shift on the recruitment front for this site. I can't visit other Millers forums without finding repeated urgings from K to their members to sign up on Banter. Good lad, but please don't neglect your patients: Ebola and Bird Flu are both very real threats.

Shocking support
(Preview)
With 134 registered members I was shocked that our highest number ever on-site (8.30 PM, Nov.21, 2014 - the tele must have been really rubbish that night) was a paltry 9! Must do better. In his heyday on MM Kempo could field 9 posters by himself.

RMBC Gritters & First Mainline buses are a DISGRACE

Gritters only decide to do summat after 3 foot of snow has already fallen & the poor darlings at First buses can't run to Maltby because "they can't turn round at Maltby" A few hours of snow & the entire infrastructure of our country goes to shyte!!!!!

Wendun RIP

It's ironic that Sugartiler should mention Wendun on the day I heard the sad news of his demise. Not everyone's cup of tea I know - particularly those MM members he occasionally threatened to shoot. But a lifelong Miller and it takes all sorts. His sister still resides in Rotherham and may read thes...

Some very interesting stuff in these quotes, Q - Are players hurt more by media criticism, pundits’ opinions and fan chants than they make out?A - Fan chants I've always hated. I never read papers unless I play well. That may sound egotistical but, psychologically, it is a tremendous boost reading g...

History of Canklow

I recently came across a fascinating old book called A History of Canklow by E. W. Dunn. Full of good stuff. Apparently in the 1890s Canklow was plagued by a bogus doctor calling himself William Ritson who was eventually unmasked as a notorious fraudster known as the Canklow Kid. He was never caug...
