[Tigerturbulance]

Hey Robertio happy birthday mate. I have this Baileys and Guinness cake for you.

We'll all have a few slices of it after we win. No cake for the Dragons though seeing that they're banned unfortunately!

every time I see a cake it reminds of that time DemurePrincess got out of Banhammer Prison

All this cake business might give you guys a sugar coma you know.


So keep it up!

 

[DemurePrincess]

A bunch of little Dragons..
Lived by the sea


They came to Sundays match day
With excitement and much Glee!

But their toothy frowns
Were unfortunately found

As the Old Boys took them on..
And sent them puff puff puffing…
where ever they came from!
