    Tink is an ethnic slur used against the travelling community. 

    Not so sure that is correct Keyser, maybe Gypsy, Tinks were a huge part of growing up in the early 50's They lived/camped outside small towns sang a few songs sharpened a few knifes stole a few things but never harmed a soul. It was a life they chose and were happy with,  skin a rabbit for the pan, drink the sweet cold water from the burn, coorie in during the winter, I knew many such people, was brought up with them, would trust them

    If anyone has read the majority of the books like me then may be interested that first series is out on Amazon Prime now, think it will be based on Killing Floor.

    I recall it being a nightmare watching games on black & white TV. Ireland v Wales was a particularly difficult one. Grey tops, white shorts, grey socks. Very few teams changed strips, home or away. If the ref asked for a change, it was incumbent on the home team. Away teams only turned up with the one set of strips.

    Snooker was much worse G.G. 🙂

    I hope he has the brass neck to say he's delighted to join us as we're a sleeping giant.  When he first heard of our interest, he knew there was only one place he wanted to be = and that was East End Park.

    🤣
