Now re-read my above statement.

Who is old enough to remember the character of the dumpy lad that you could put on the inside of your window that had a little 'pump' attached to it, when you pressed it, he pulled his trousers down??

They are kind of missing the original point that the 'GOFUCKYOURSELF' part was a take on alpha-numeric phone dialling. Why would you dial 0800? It's not even a phone number.

PMSL.
Just re-read it again... and I was reading it that you were saying the original was "0800 Go And Fuck Yourself" and that the rip-off version that was making you laugh just now was "0800 GOFUCKYOURSELF" instead.


Cheers,

Aye, i didnt have a clue, when he put the sticker i asked what it was, he said it was a group of banned drivers or something like that. think it was a curse, he lost his licence about 6 month after he put it on
