just who are the Vikings?

erm... just wonderin, just who exactly are the VIKINGS? How many of u r there? r u all mancs? age range? Come on make urselves known! Have u got a leader? when u die will u float off in a burning boat?... tells us tales of rape and pillage across the continent

you have to travel with a document to rape and pillage all across the continent

Vikings or Norsemen come from the Scandinavian countries of Danmark, Norway and Sweden. They settled in Icleand and Greenland, and even reached the North American continent. In the early middle ages they did indeed do much rapinig and pillaging in europe, in the process laying the foundations for the first Russian state, and conquering Normandy in northern France, from whence they would later incvade England

I hope this helps.

phew! I thought it was the British contingent of New Order fanatics following the band at every show

One day I would like to be one. So far I have only managed to rub up against them.

I aspire to become a Viking. I have the badge, kindly bestowed upon me by Al at the Audley. I must now earn the right to wear it!

In doing so I would need to cast aside my marriage of some twelve summers, to throw in my piecemeal occupation and extort a goodly few pounds sterling from my long-suffering bank. I must also learn to drink large quantities of fine Jameson's Irish whiskey in-between pints of ale.

I know these truths to be self-evident...

Same here.

me too

i wonder if the boy and girl scouts accept them.

Was hoping to have been made an honourary VIKING but alas it was not to be, dr is well . Thought that my dazzling repartee and my holy physician like northern nuttiness would just have done it alone,but hey life is shit when you live oop north and hand out prescriptions to asylum seekers and junkies all day.

Thought that my attendance in the st johns ambulance tent (with my colleagues) at hyde park would have done it too,(hey surely thats what vikings do).

To mr jarvis,make Dr an honorary viking,or the next time you go to the doctors you are in trouble!

Al or Shug, send Mr a badge quicksmart. :)

His was a stunning performance at Hyde Park

I reckon any Vikings who didn't twat the Coldshiteplay fans out of the way at Glasto should have their membership revoked. :\ohwell:

"I don't know why they are called the Vikings they should be known as the Hooligans" - Barney, France 2005.

I'm blonde, I'm from Manc land, I've been a fan for 20 years, I've been known to consume large quantities of beer on occassion, but I wouldn't say i'm a Viking... so don't stress if you ain't one (I don't watch Premier League either - maybe theres a correlation there)!

Nah he didnt swear during out little "shout out"

I have noted the majority (not all) of the "Vikings" only became Order fans in the late eighties. Why is this?.Don`t recall seeing any of yous at Birmingham Tower Ballroom Oct 86 climbing the plastic palm trees.

What were you all into when Low Life came out?.Dire fuckin Straits?

(a Viking hits back with "don`t recall you getting the setlist and backstage access at the gig on Pluto that took 3 weeks to get to via the Fuji festival")

Anyways, i`m off on me annual holiday to Brazil with the firm to meet some of them Rio girls again (no, NOT the ladyboys before you say it).See ya!.

Chris wrote that????

Why cant i see half of this page?

Uncle Liam wrote: Why cant i see half of this page?

It's because James was supposed to write his line "Chris wrote that????" right behind "quote in the brackets" but obviously he didn't do so. Not only he screwed this page but he also made it look like "Chris wrote that????" was something Al said which isn't true. It would be for the best if he edited his post or perhaps Tim should do that for him!

i think the vikings are the followers of nu ordr from the early 80's i went to the g-mex gig in manchester in 1988 and the opening coming on stage music besides alan wise's comments was the theme tune from the film the vikings.i think it is all down to mr hook? does this help?
