  • Once when I was a nipper, famous strongman and ornithologist Geoff Capes showed up to our school fête and took part in the welly whanging. Needless to say, Geoff whanged that welly into the next parish. I think no one who was there can have forgot it.

  • As for "the point", what's the point of throwing anything? I'm disappointed in you, vendingmachine.

  • ...Geoff whanged that welly into the next parish.

    I like the sound of it, yarb. Then again, you've always had a way with words, even welly ones.

  • The definition above clearly says 'humorous sport' so I think it's time for our group chuckle now.
