Official Solihull Thread

Engels · June 17th, 2007, 06:43 PM

Ok we've been talking about one so here it is the (in no way Official) Solihull Thread:

Town: Solihull
Population: 94,753 (2001)
Metropolitan Borough Council
Part of the West Midlands, South East of Birmingham
Motto: "Urbs in Rure" - Town in the Country

(In no way nicked of Wikipedia)

Erm, wasn't smysticed supposed to start this?? Nice photo though.

Engels · June 17th, 2007, 07:10 PM

Really? i missed that. Does anybody really care who starts threads?

GrAfiK_248 · June 17th, 2007, 07:13 PM

i do! only joking

Erebus555 · June 17th, 2007, 07:13 PM

I think Butterfield may be suffering from a bout of favouritism

. What is there to talk about Solihull? What's happening there other than some work at Chelmsley Wood centre?

Butterfield · June 17th, 2007, 07:16 PM

I just want to see some photos of Solihullshire as we never see them on here - apart from Chelmsley Wood.

Who cares that nothing is going on? Just pics 'n' info will do.

EDIT: Oh and Erebus, don't be jealous - just because you're not my favourite anymore...

Telfordboy · June 17th, 2007, 07:22 PM

Tut tut, you shouldn't have favourites Butterfield. Its not fair on the other children.

I don't care cus you were never mine!

Butterfield · June 17th, 2007, 07:34 PM

I was merely hoping that smysticed would create his first thread. Nowt wrong with that is there??

After all it was him who suggested the Solihull thread in the first place.

There's nothing wrong with that at all. Just a bit of friendly banter and Butterfield-teasing... again. This teasing is become a bit of a habit.

smysticed · June 17th, 2007, 07:40 PM

Aww, am I your favourite Butters?

I'm sure I'll get a chance to create threads in the future, not like its a big deal or anything. Anyway, things don't seem to be happening very much in Solihull, but it can still have a thread right? For photos and stuff, and if anything does happen... maybe...

Well, I'm used to it. I'm here to be teased.

Now, where were we.....? Solihull - how do you pronounce it? I say a cross between "Solly-hull" and "Sully-hull". Some say "Soelly-hull". What do the rest of ya saaaaay???

Where am I?

I say Sol-i-hull I hate it when people call it So-lihull.

smysticed · June 17th, 2007, 07:55 PM

Sol-i-hull for me. I think the council have this idea that it's pronounced So-lihull, but it just isn't. Maybe a few Solihull School Old Boys say it like that... (no offense Engels

)

Erebus555 · June 17th, 2007, 07:59 PM

I pronounce it Sol-i-ull. Yes, without the h. I sound like a write thick-shit, don't I?

Telfordboy · June 17th, 2007, 08:00 PM

I've noticed at work that the people who say So-lihull always say Shrowesbury instead of Shrewsbury.

I say "Sullyhull" but "Shrowesbury" (the original pronunciation). What does that make me then??
