Coneye, how do you describe yourself by nationality out of interest?

Theres no question about it i'm English , i was born there and grew up there ,, but i have took out Aussie citezenship , i felt it was the least i could do , this country has been good to me , and i love it here ,, whenever i've been back i always feel nostalgic and love England , but i know i could never live there full time again ,

We were toying with the idea , of joining some thing where people actually swap houses for a period , not sure what its called , but apparantly people swap houses and borrow each others cars ect for a set period , that appealed to me but covid has put an end to them thoughts ,, I would love it i'm an avid motorbike rider , and would love to just hit the motorways there travel the UK and go over to europe on my bike .

But Yeh , I'm a pom ,, un;less i'm in england when my old mates refer to me has an Auss ie

So an Englishman born in England who doesn't live in England is still an Englishman.

Not trying to take the piss mate, just wanted to illustrate that something that may seem unusual about how people choose to identify themselves isn't necessarily that strange at all

I think he was getting at Homicide Henry rather than yourself.

To be fair I think you yourself got wound up by Homicide Henry.

Just wait until you hear about the time he hired a clairvoyant to get in touch with the ghost of Bartley Gorman so he could instil some gypsy fighting spirit into Henry

Been trying to find the thread but think it’s been purged, pretty sure it was during one of Henry’s “fund me to fight my internet rival” threads The only post I can now find is me referencing it to Henry

Something he’d seen in some hick fake news story.

To be fair, wasn’t the completely fabricated Birmingham story actually on CNN or something?

Ha Ha ain't that the truth !!! Did you know that after finding out he had been lied to by an Asian mystic about his 'Gypsy heritage' and that he had ancestral links to the 'Robbins' family (He famously requested that boxrec change his name to the John Fury inspired 'Gypsy Henry Bobbins Dethingbow') He has now conveniently discovered through ancestry.com that the Gypsy family he actually has genetic ties to are the 'Loveridges' ! I can see him now in my minds eye, like an over excited boy on Christmas Eve full of glee, learning how to actually fight (well miles better than his most recent 'form' in his 47 second 'showing' against J'Leon Love! ) they will take him hare coursing and Cockerell fighting, teach him how to catch trout with just his bare hands, give him the closet space in the family trailer....Kind of reminds me of the last time Rufus used spiritual means in some Gypsy related endeavour, where he hired the expertise of a medium to make contact with the ten year departed soul of Bartley Gorman, where in his own words he asked a spirit that was supposedly Gorman's "Bartley, I honour and respect your fighting spirit, you were the greatest of all times ! You were the king of the Gypsies ! Bit you are dead now, you don't need the title and the recognition it brings, but I do ! Oh Bartley, let me inherit the title of King of the Gypsies from you so that I might be made great too ! Let me also inherit the legendary fighting spirit you used to ko Henry Francis ! And if you do grant me my wish Bartley I will forever keep your name alive, and tell and re tell your story until everyone gets bored of hearing it"

IT seems Bartley's 'spirit' didn't make good on his faustian deal with Rufus, Rufus still won't shut his pipe about Gorman but is still waiting to be the king of the Gypsies

As far as I know there isn't anywhere in the UK that's a Muslim no-go zone. I remember seeing a black guy in Southhall and kind of nodding at each other, like hey neither of us Indian, and being quite amazed by this slightly eerie area of London where almost literally everybody was neither black OR white, just Asian for as long as the eye could see. But I bet hardly any of them were Muslims and it wasn't exactly like I was run out of town. People just noticed me, that's all.
