you needed to complete the sentence with "not a scally" otherwise it implies youre contradicting yourself in the same sentence.
its like the play i'm involved with, the character says "why dont you kill a woman like your brother" "i dont think there is a woman like my brother" "why dont you kill a woman like your brother did, theres a verb on the end of that" (paraphrased).

No but the rest of the sentence justified the quote you made, I was talking about scallys and Liverpool then said i'm from Liverpool but im not I could have made myself more clear by adding a scally or one to the end but I'm lazy lol.

I hope you took that whole thing about learning to speak English in Jest because that is how it was meant, thet's the thing I don't like about these fourums no tone of voice or body language so what you might say in Jest to people face to face, and they see the joke, might offend someone on here

I'm from Liverpool and yes we call them scallies (but always have done for years and years without ever hearing the word chav) and no I'm not of the scally persuasion myself!Smile The word came from Scallywags which meant people who were a little bit like loveable rogues but not out-and-out criminals - but I think that meaning has changed over the years to better fit what are now known as chavs!

One of my favourite evers quotes is from one of my brothers English teachers. "Right...I'm gonna learn you some English." I want to be a teacher just so I can say that. Smile

What are chavs' problems with behaving in society???

Me and my mate were walking down the street yesterday when some clever @rse chavette thought it would be hilarious to throw things at us and call us something like 'freaks' and 'moshers' Mad

Not sure why. They are cowards when alone or in pairs. In groups they have more 'courage'. I try to look mean/give off mean vibes. Seems to work, plus I'm harder than they are. Big Grin

Yeah I hate Scallies/Chavs too, Me and my friend were on our way out on a Saturday and we were going to an All Nighter. We went to the train station to get the train into town and as we got there four lads came walking out, they were about 17 or 18 and me and my friend are 21 and 23 but it was still 4 on 2, anyway they came out of the station and we went to go in and without a word or a look being exchanged as they went past one of them swung for my mate, he ducked and we turned around to face them. They started shouting at us and one of them lunged forward to attack us again, meanwhile one of them was circling behind us, the one that lunged forward was kicked back by my mate then the one that went behind us that I was watching went for my mate from behind and I shouted to my mate and he dodged that too so we decided not to fight them and ran onto the station where they followed us so we said to the attendent to call the police, they started ti circle around us again and were swearing and spitting at us, they were obviously off their heads on coke, and we went to go down the steps to the platform but as I turned one of them cracked me and caught me in such a way that he broke my jaw but I didn;t find this out untill the next day as it didn't actually hurt that much, then all four of them piled on to me and I curled up into a ball, they then fled before the police came, I had to have surgery on my jaw the following week!
So as you can see I hate scallies

When I was little I couldn't grasp the concept of "tomorrow" and used to say "the day after this day", and "the day after the day after this day". A source of much amusement for my mother.

Love that line. Also:

"I'm not drinking any ****ing Merlot!"

And the 'Bukowski' bit, brilliant!

Love that bit. Smile

The scene where he has to sneak into the woman's house to get Jack's wallet back reminded me of a scene from Frour Weddings, only scarier!

Also love "I'm not drinking any ****ing Merlot!" ("Did you drink and dial?") and the golf scene.
