Happy Thanksgiving

[Barnet Wolves]

Doesn't mean much to most but for us exiles in the States this is as big as xmas.

Have a great one!!

 

[AW]

Who are we thanking?

 

[Smithy]

I'm 25 and I still don't know (or care) what Thanksgiving is.

 

[el gringo]

where are you, Barnet? I'm in Syracuse, NY.

 

[Edgmond Wolf]

I just had to look up what Thanks Giving Day was .....

Sounds like a day to sit eat and stuff yourself

 

[SanFranWolf]

What's it about? A massive turkey dinner & lots of drinking!

Best holiday of the year.

Canvas your MP's to have same adopted in the UK - you can't have Black Friday without Thanksgiving.

I bet 46M turkeys will disagree with you.

 

[SanFranWolf]

Yes but with sport on the tv instead of the queen.

 

[Orbital Wolves]

Much rather Blue Monday than Black Friday

Very good political point there Jonzy.

I'm British - I thought it best to adopt the drinking nature of this particular holiday so as to integrate with the locals...

Can't argue or disagree there. Enjoy

If it's not Wolves, something to do with Bradley Wiggins or conkers you folks are all over the place aren't you.

It's a 'Football' holiday, not Rounders.

We already won the Rounders.

It's a Thursday, tomorrow is Friday. What better excuse for a drink? (Apart from it actually being Friday)

You have been drinking too much......it aint football, girls rugby but not football

 

[arooooo]

Happy Thanksgiving, folks!

Turkey in about 2 hours....

if you know what day it is you haven't drunk enough

For those interested, (probably not many), Thanksgiving originated in Canada, and by the explorer Frobisher, and in the spring for surviving the long harsh northern winter and not for the harvest.
It has been seconded by the pussys in the South who wouldn't know anything about 'harsh'

Thanks, didn't realise that.

 

[Mr Wolf]

Guiness was also invented by an Englishman whilst were on this path.

 

[clifs]

Actually, surprisingly, girls rugby is quite good. Certainly a lot better than that American football rubbish.

 

[Jonzy54]

Genuine question did someone invent it before Arthur Guinness because he was born in County Kildare?
Never tried it myself because I don't like stouts and porters.

 

[Very Proud (AKA Still Proud)]

Personally I'm celebrating the Black Country Friday, why have it once a year when you can have it every week!

Although I hear Police have had to intervene in Netherton High Street when shoppers go out of hand after the butcher reduced his stratchings to sixpence a bag

 

[SanFranWolf]

Good to see the UK getting into the Black Friday spirit.

Also good to see one of the last bastions of Britishness - orderly queuing being upheld.

Black Friday sales

He used to drink a version of it in (Convent Garden?) London before he leased his brewery, he took a 'bad' batch back with him because it got burnt as nobody would buy it.

St Patrick was also from England, well possibly Wales.

The more I think about I think you are right....can not wait to tackle one or two of the beauties

[Vietnam Wolf]

I give thanks every day that I'm not someone that gives a $$$$ about American holidays.

 

[The_Blade]
