Right Joe !!...Well... firstly Stanley had hoped that the OED would at least have the correct spelling of Vulvazulu in their hallowed pages, but sadly their highly-paid Researchers have on this occasion sold them short !.

As for Cow-Shed Sid, he had me join 'Toontastic' ( Newcastle United's Fans Forum...on which incidentally, after a dozen or so of my more unusual posts I appear to be unwanted !!)...His reason was to find out if the 'Toon' Fans would be bringing their Vulvazulus along with them, and blowing them instead of intoning that old Tyneside Dirge 'Blaydon Races'!..This must have got their collective Geordie blood-pressures up,and their Reply Posts were most uncomplimentary...and thus were, along with mine removed by an over-zealous Moderator !....so no luck there !!.

Alfred.E...who as you know made himself a Silent Vulvazulu out of Papier-mache will bring it to the Newcastle Game but says that he will not blow on it as he is not quite sure what
D o'N's stance is on this behaviour and doesn't want ejecting from the ground for embarassing our Chairman(?) in front of the visiting Dignitaries or any nervous old Ladies who might be present !.

Knowing which side my Bread is buttered on,am as usual totally ambivalent about the whole matter...

Well you did ask !!
