Ye Olde St.Kilda Guernsey Needed

[Sainternist]

Felllow Sainters,

I'm attending a function on Saturday night where there is a fancy dress theme. The theme is your favourite sports hero. Plugger Lockett immediately came to mind as I have - or at least I thought I had - an old guernsey from the early 90's which still fits. I thought it was in my closet with the other Saints jumpers, but to my dismay it isn't there. I turned the house upside down looking for it and no luck. It's a little heartbreaking as it was one of those prized relics I've managed to hang onto for over 20 years. I looked on eBay for an old school guernsey, but unfortunately there's only one on there for sale which is too small in size and at a considerable cost ($700, no less).

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone would have one (preferably size L or larger) they would be willing to sell or perhaps even loan to me just for the weekend. I'd be most indebted if someone could help a brother out.

Regards,

Sainternist

Here are 2 jumpers that you may be able to buy cheap.

Make an offer..........$2.50 should buy both of them.

Thanks.

Although, you may need to work on your sense of humour. It's about as sharp as a bowling ball, old boy.

“Nice girl, but about as sharp as a sack of wet mice”
“Nice boy but he’s got more nerve than a bum tooth”
“I say, boy, pay attention when I’m talkin’ to ya, boy”
“Pay attention, boy, I’m cuttin’ but you ain’t bleedin’!”
“Smart boy, got a mind like a steel trap – full of mice”

“That boy’s as strong as an ox, and just about as smart”
“Now I wonder what ol’ busy body widow hen is up to”
“Boy’s gotta mouth like a cannon, always shootin’ it off”
“This boy’s more mixed up than a feather in a whirlwind”
“That dog, I say that dog’s strictly GI – gibberin idiot that is”
“Don’t, I say don’t bother me dog, can’t ya see I’m thinkin’
“For-I say fortunately I always carry a spare set of feathers”
“That, I say that boy’s just like a tatoo, gets under your skin”
“Kid don’t quit talkin’ so much he’ll get his tongue sunburned”

“Pay attention to me boy! I’m not just talkin’ to hear my head roar”
“That’s the trouble with that fool dog, always shootin’ his mouth off”
“That’s what I’ve been – I say, that’s what I’ve been telling you, boy!”
“Now what, I say now what’s that skinny old hen doin’ up on the barn”
“That, I say that dog’s busier than a centipede at a toe countin’ contest”
“Now cut that out boy, or I’ll spank you where the feathers are thinnest”
“Look sister is any of this filterin’ through that little blue bonnet of yours”
“I got, I say I got this boy as fidgety as a bubble dancer with a slow leak”
“Stop, I say stop it boy, you’re doin’ alot of choppin’ but no chips are flyin’
“This is going to cause more confusion than a mouse in a burlesque show”
“You know there might, I say there just might be a market for bottled duck”
“What’s, I say what’s the big idea wrappin’ a lariat around my adams apple”
“Fortunately I keep my feathers numbered, for, for just such an emergency”
“What in the, I say what in the name of Jesse James do you suppose that is”
“Gal reminds me of a highway between Forth Worth and Dallas – no curves”
“Now what, I say what’s the big idea bashin’ me in the bazooka that-a-way boy!”
“She remi – I say, she reminds me of Paul Revere’s ride, a little light in the belfry”
“Now what, I say what’s the big idea bashin’ me on the noggin’ with a rollin’ pin!”
“Now who’s, I say who’s responsible for this unwarranted attack on my person!”
“This boy’s making more noise than a couple of skeletons throwin’ a fit on a tin roof”
“The snow, I say the snow’s so deep the farmers have to jack up the cows so they can milk’em”
“What a day for trampin’ through the woods … lump dum do di do do doh, doo dah, doo dah”
“Now that, I say that’s no way for a kid to be wastin’ his time, readin’ that long-haired gobbledegook”
“It’s sure, I say it’s sure quiet around here, you could hear a caterpillar sneakin’ across a moss bed in tennis shoes”
“As senior rooster ’round here, it’s my duty, and my pleasure, to instruct junior roosters in the ancient art of roostery”
“Hey boy, what’s the idea jackin’ that pot up under me? Jack? Pot? Ahuh, huh … jack pot, that’s a joke son, don’t ya get it?”

Now, back on topic.
If anyone can help Sainternist with a guernsey that is suitable, please do.

I do like the idea of going as old Foghorn. I could wear a red rubber glove on top of my head. However, it's just a pity he was a cartoon character and not a sporting personality. I'm probably better off sticking to the theme. But thanks for the suggestion, mate.

Foghorn along with that stupid skunk chasing that cat had to be the worst cartoons

I beg to differ. I loved the Warner Bros Looney cartoons when I was growing up. Guys like Tex Avery were some of the great innovators for animation of their time.

...... not sure what happened here.......

What suburb are you in? i have a jumper but am in St Kilda at work or Caulfield North after hours- you can borrow mine. Large with long sleeves though and a 7 on the back which doesn't quite work but some tape might fix it.

PM me if you are keen.

One day to go.

Bump.

Any positive progress, Sainternist?

Thank you for the kind offer, Gringo. I didn't check on this thread for a few days as I gave up on the idea. Cheers.

No, I went for a plan b in the end. Dressed up as a famous (or infamous) baseball player instead. Thanks for bumping the thread all the same.
