If, by 'mountain women' you actually mean 'sheep', then yes.

Sorry mate, its not just you, everyone spells it weird. And pronounces it odd as well.

A group of WAGS were asking where "who-tonne" was on the weekend.

Bahaha I reckon that was us. As for where Houghton is, it's like bloody Narnia or something. I've driven through it by accident on the way up to Kersbrook once or twice, but I don't remember how I got there.

PS. Is it 'Howton'? Because that's how I've been saying it and people give me strange looks when I do.

Yes Fisho, you got it right.

It depends on where your from...Like Green-with and Gren-ith

Correct weight Fisho, the only way to get there is via magic wardrobe.

And the pronunciation is correct as well.

It’s another Mitchell Park person! Introduce yourself next time Fisho - I'm the good looking one.

Technically I think its supposed to be Ho - tun. It’s named after a town in England’s North called Houghton le Spring. They pronounce the o the same way we say the o in “go”.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key

But I doubt anyone would say it like that. So I say How - ton to fit in.

I didn't even notice that...welcome to the looney bin Fisho (I mean the ammo boards, not Mitchell Park )

They're a good bunch out there, you could do plenty worse

By the way Fisho is not my alias.

Welcome aboard, we need all the help we can get on here cos we cop a pasting.

Turn it up. We're like the last 300 Spartans you and I Yanky.

Cheers, yeah we came up from Aldinga this year. Mitchell Park seems like a good place, good people. Looking forward to the year ahead!

More precisely, the visitors changerooms. A dark and mysterious place.

So it's true then, having never been to your lovely club they are the size of a wardrobe yes? Guess I will find out in round 7.

Then you will get to privelidge to cuddle up in our visitors room in round 15. If you've been there it hasn't changed, must do something about them, it's on the bucket list but way down the order.

Oops, I meant changeroom showers.

Yes, they are wardrobe like, but you Lions fellas like a cosy shower
