Bognor away

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Was speaking to some of the lads last night - sounds like Bognor away is gonna be mental. Seems everyone is coming back for it.

 

One or two of them (Costello, Fenton) were talking about staying down there for the weekend, but I'll be getting a train early on Saturday morning, as will Pete and Alan, I think.

 

What are everyone else's plans for this match - sure now to be our only decent away trip of the season??

 

 

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Not sure yet - weekends away are always a laugh, I'd be up for that. We all aggreed after Newcastle and Alans stag do that we'll have to all go away every so often, seems like a good enough reason as any!

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Fadhel's coming apparently. Any word on whether Griffiths is coming back from Uni, or whether the Libro or Trev are gonna come??

 

 

[EFM's Librarian]

I'll almost certainly be going, are you definitely just going down for the day, or is there any chance of you making a weekend of it?

[Colin Zeal EFM]

No, just for the day. Spoke with the others at the weekend, and they're all going just for the day too. Seems Thornsy is the only one staying overnight!!

 

 

[EFM_Costello]

It looks like most of EFM F.C all want to come as well. I think we will have atleast 30 in the firm for Bognor.

 

I stiil think we should all learn at least a few words in Latin for the trip.

 

Perhaps zeal you could throw a few sentences on here which the firm might use and then translate into Latin so we can start learning.

[Stu B]

[EFM_Costello]

Very impressive but we need to know how to say things like

 

Your gonna die out side

I'm innocent

It wasnt me it was the guy with long hair and glasses.

Tell me i didnt do it

Oh you b*stard you ripped my stone island

Take me back home

Please look after me i feel ill

 

 

[Colin Zeal EFM]

"It wasnt me it was the guy with long hair and glasses"

 

Strictly contact lenses these days, after the lawyer broke them at Canvey.

 

Or are you referring to the Thorns??

 

 

[Chubbhead EFM]

'Regus' means King I think. That could be useful! Errr...'Carpe Diem'(seize the day), 'Maria Angelorum' (Mary Queen of The Angels)...maybe not.

[YELLOW]

Infantus et Effectus: Young and effective.

[Chubbhead EFM]

I've managed to find my year 9 Latin workbook! Here's some phrases that may(not) be useful:

 

Regimus: we rule

 

Volubilis non est Laetus. Aquam in Culuna bibit. Vinum bibere vult

Volubilis (or EFM member) is not happy. He is drinking water in the kitchen. He wants to drink wine (or Cloudy Cider)

 

Salvius est dominus. Salvius servos diligenter inspicit,

Salvius is the master. Salvius inspects the slaves carefully.(not quite sure in what situation that would be relevant!)

 

Volo/Nolo:I want/Don't want

Vis/Non Vis: You(s) want/Don't want

Vult/Non Vult: He/She/it want/ Don't Want

Volumus/Nolumus: we want/Don't want

Vultis/Non Vultis: You (p) want/don't want

Volunt/ Nolunt: They want/Don't want

 

Ego multas villas habeo:

I have many houses

 

Caecilius pecuniam numerat:

Caecillius is counting his money.

 

It also says in my book that all Roman citizens had 3 names:' Because Caecilius was a Roman citizen he had 3 names. His names were Luccius Caecilius Lucundus. The first name is like a modern first name. His second name, Caecilius, was to show that he was a member of the caeciliys 'clan'. The third name is like our surnames.' So you need to adopt a third name then!

 

[Chubbhead EFM]

or how about 'Pugno'= to fight, 'Pulso'= to hit/thump, 'Vitupero'=blame/curse. Okay I'll stop now.

[Rob_the_Saint]

Nil Illegitimi Carboruundum - don't let the b*st*rds grind you down!

[Colin Zeal EFM]

This is fantastic stuff! Keep it coming!!

 

Costello - I'm sure we can make use of some of those!!

 

 

[Chubbhead EFM]

hehehe...this one would be used after one of EFM's notorious drinking sessions:

 

Cerberus via dormit

Cerberus sleeps in the street! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

 

I have a whole sheet of verbs! Here's some more:

Agito: chase, hunt

Clamo: Shout

Celebro: Celebrate

Incito: Urge on, encourage

Lacrimo: Weep

Neco: Kill(!)

Porto: Carry

Servo: Save

Taceo: be silent

Negotium ago: do 'business'

Bibo: Drink

Curro: Run

Emitto: send out, throw

Surgo: Get up rise.

 

Hope these will be of some use to you!

 

[Colin Zeal EFM]
