Just been for a lunch-hour pint and game of pool* with a pal and while I was scooting down Oxford Rd (apparently the busiest bus route in Europe) there were 2 chavs aged about 16 years olds I'd say on BMX like bikes heading towards me on the wrong side of the road. There was more than enough room for me to continue my course without swerving but I still looked at them like they were complete numptys and unsurprisingly one of them attempted to do a mock ram into me hoping to make me flinch and fly on my ar*e. Funnily enough I didn't as his wee motor-less 2 wheeler weighs considerably less than mine. Twonk. I think if I was riding an automatic I'd carry a pellet gun  The yang to that there ying showed up though when I parked up after lunch and got chatting to an old fella who use to have a Vespa 90 in the 70s. Apparently his Missus used to take up 3 quarters of the seat when she was 8 and a half months pregnant  This country. * 'tattered him 4-1 if anyone's interested |

Chavs are very amusing strange sense of style . My daughter says that because I was a skin in the old days if I was young now I would be a chav . Yoof of today  |

Being of such an age group, I have encounters of this kind daily... These mock lurches in your direction are generally accompanied by loud grunts in order to add to the mortal fear they like to believe they've instilled in you. Usually, they then walk off snickering gormlessly amongst their kin at the poor soul they believe they have destroyed. I just tell them to f&%£ off.  |

Speaking of scallies, found a brilliant video on YouTube that pretty much sums them up... |

In Medway we have a new annoying trend of 17yr olds on very noisy trailbikes screaming through local streets. These little Chavs have the uniform of trackie bottoms and white vest in all weathers. The best bit is when they race up level with you and start doing wheelies next to you as your doing your best to concentrate on cars and pedestrians. At the same time they shout things like 'Get a proper bike you old W- ****er. lol their so funny

You won't believe this, but I heard the song on Bargain Hunt. Thought "Ooh that's good" and Googled the lyrics. It took me w while to work out that A Band of Bees is actually what the Americans call The Bees, who are a band from Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. (And have played at the Fort in New Brighton, with David Guest as their, er guest, in the audience).
Anyway, I don't want to hijack this thread. It's about scallies, not music.

That's not a hammer, it's a rubber mallet. They're supposed to smell of rubber. It's no good hitting a scally in the back of the helmet with one of those, it just bounces off. No it's got to be a ball pein hammer every time.

Buy a wooden one Dont you mean a baseball bat? Couple of nails through it always provokes the desired reaction. |
