The PFL's Page

The PFL has faithfully promised that he will be preparing an address to members shortly.

Read here about the PFL unfortunately wetting himself.

In the absence of anything sensible falling from the incoherent lips of our beloved PFL, we print a copy of a speech he gave a while back whilst dedicating a pub to the memory of past members.


The Get's Burger Address
Four score and seven Twelve years ago our fathers colleagues brought forth on this continent a new nation society, conceived in Liberty Hemel, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal capable of playing golf, drunk or sober.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war piss-up, testing whether that nation society, or any nation society, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field in a great pub of that war piss-up. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field pub, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives brain cells that that nation society might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow—this ground pub. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living remnants, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought drank here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honoured dead drinkers we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead drinkers shall not have died fallen over rat-arsed in vain — that this nation society, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people the buying of the rounds, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

(Well, most of the people moved anyway)
