what's the age limit for girls?

16 to when they stop being hot/buying me drinks?
is that some kind of trick question?

often 'woman' offends, you can't win.

oh. dear. young. morgan....are you on heat cos it's summer?? well it's fucking it down with rain up here....it might cool you off...

hahahahhahahahahahahahhaaha. ace.

snoops, "girl" is far more offensive. the connotations suggest weakness and non self reliance. a woman is what i am. i have reached puberty and i am strong and autonomous..yeah...wooo that's when we all break into "all the women, independent..." ..erm no actually we don't do that..i guess it all depends on how it's said doesn't it too...sorry i am VERY hungover..

that said i like grrrl. as in riot grrrrl. that's cool.

no i'm with you, i was being slightly facetious with my above comment.

anyway it's andy you have to talk to on these matters. he's very traditional in his terminology.

Broad or Dame is the correct nomenclature.

gr, just realised i'm stuck in work til 8 tonight. Be down when I escape though.

girl/woman is a minefield for offence. you're safe with bird

carpark polo tonoght?

bint/wench?

or spinster in my case. i have a mallet for you hannah!!!!!woooop...had a right old mission. forgot that my rear wheel got fucked in last time i played so spent all day trying to find one..and am skint so it's a mega shite one that is pretty wobbly but at least all the spokes are intact

spinster sounds cool aswell, like i'm dead good at roller racing...cept i'm not

That website looks pretty freaking awesome, I can't wait to contribute to that!

No, Andy is an antagonist.

using twitter is such a good idea for polo.

bollocks i'd just got confused..anyone up for grass polo tourney???

we need to get the oxford/mcr trophy back!

Nice one, thanks Nes!
I'm not up for another couple of weeks. Just excited about foreign
polo adventures.
Actually, I'm also supposed to ask you whether you'd be game to send a
team or two down for a grass polo mini-tournament at this year's Bike
Blenheim Palace event on 4 October. Apparently it will be in an
arena of some sort, with the possibility of hundreds if not thousands
of spectators. We're trying to ideally get a team each from London,
Cambridge and Manchester. We can even play for the Oxford-Manchester
trophy! There won't be any proper grass polo players there, all
hardcourt people, and apparently the grass will be good and short, so
it won't be too different from polo as we know it, hopefully.
I don't know if you're still in touch with Dan Harris, but he's the
main organizer. I can provide more details when I see you in a couple
of weeks, too. Anyway, just putting it out there for you to think
about/talk to others about.

Take care,
Corey

If there are no real Grass Polo players playing will we still have to play their stupid rules...?
