Bags can be a little insensitive at times, true enough. Sometimes they just don’t get when you’re having a tough day, like you will tomorrow, for example.

Thanks for the like, lanky_wes. Honestly have been pretty flat at the lack of love for that bag pun.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

Greetings Gumbys and Taras, how fares you this fine Winter's night?




As part of our sponsorship with Aardman, for every home game, we will award an opposition a small little trophy, a ticket to Aardman's World of Clay here in Gumbania, and a chance to win the yearly award... maybe. We can at least get a cast of characters going.


This week, to celebrate the Demons, we're going to be hitting the slopes as we go skiing!






This clay classic takes us back to 1989. This was the big debut of Wallace and Gromit, THE faces of Aardman, as they plan for a cheesy vacation on one of England's many bank holidays, having a GRAND DAY OUT.


Our skiing friend here is known as Cooker, the deuteragonist of our little story here. Cooker here is a stove and... well, you tell me why is there a sentient, coin operated stove on the moon, who sole duty is to police those that cause grief on the moon. (That's what we call an imagination, folks).


As such, the one we think is a grand, skiing-loving stove is Proper Gander! Such a Grand Debut! (Ha ha, themes!) Doing their best to keep everyone, even fellow teammates, up to standard.




We hope there is more to come from this fine debutante.


For now, we give Proper Gander this small trophy, a ticket to Aardman's World of Clay, and a role as Cooker!


Well done Proper Gander!

[Headless]

May you have hundreds more debuts to come, Proper Gander.

Whoohoo. Thanks Headless.

And thank you Fryer Tuck for the award. I’m not certain what I won or how, but I won it, which is excellent.

I’ve been up for hours, doing my pelvic floor exercises and refining my techniques for ocular displacement.

To say I’m ready is an understatement.

 

[Proper Gander]

Well I’m totally ready to go. Gumbies appear to be hiding. Much the best idea for them at this point though.

Is it ok if I get in on this and make a bagless joke?

 

[Headless]

I'll accept it, but only because it's you.

 

[cooney]

Did it bag you?

Yes it did

I will not I will have a fine day

Nah, some of us just live 5 mins from the ground so no need to transit via sleigh.

 

[BLERN]

Game day!

And im only mildly hungover. Perfect preparation

You don’t understand dramatic flourish until you arrive half a minute before the centre bounce on a sled with twelve Siberian Huskies

I just did a day and a half straight working with only 4 hours off inbetween to sleep.

My body wasnt up for drinking anymore.
