Mrluvaluva…….because his return has bought a forum smile and a forum Oi! Oi! Oi! that’s really enhancing the season so much…as well as always having interesting thoughts and input etc…the Audio livestream thread is a huge addition that we didn’t have before and gives a great perspective of events…
BlackDagger……again, his presence on the forum this season has been like a sugar rush of loveliness….hes always a joy on or off season…
Cherie……like others, I’ll also nominate Cherie but I need to say absolutely that this is not a pity vote/nomination…it’s not a regular one either, though in that I had a strange and quite sinister text from someone called Tilly who said…that if I didn’t nominate her mama this week then she had skills that would make her a nightmare for me…and that she would look for me and she would find me and….well, is that ok now, Tilly…are we good…?….

Thank you ma'am. Sincerely.
Ok. Let's get a perspective on the "Oi's!"
We can do "Oi! Oi! Oi! Saveloy!" Which is actually a term of endearment for something you like. Just in a boisterous way.
"Oi! Oi!" is like saying hello.
"Oi!" effectively means recognition. As in...
"Oi! Oi! Here they are".
"Oi!" on it's own means "you" and might be quite negative. As in "Oi! Idiot"!
Congratulations to last week's winners. Thoroughly deserved imo.
Anyway it's about the amount of Oi's you use. I used 2 not 3.
