Well at least we don't have to duck when he flies past.

Is it possible for a well known village idiot like me to do it I wonder?

Good idea.

You wouldn't need to dress up either ;o)

Just you wait until I fly overhead. I will find you. Bombs away.

Today's GILBERT was clearly inexperienced and a bit shy, but he danced 'The Gilbert' quite well. However, we do need a permanent GILBERT.

This Gilbert dancing before the game is quite simply embarrassing.

No it isn't. Have a laugh =D =D

its the sort of thing mascots are supposed to do. its better than him plodding about doing sod all. at least he has his own little party piece.

the only reason i suggested he do it in the first place was a bit of a laugh and to give him something to do.

the song goes with him because he is a bird and seeing the family guy dance made me think of it as something gilbert could do for a change. its meant to be a bit of silliness, thats the point.

Mr. Chunkygull is quite right; in fact, I am very pleased with his idea of introducing 'The Gilbert' to Plainmoor. In fact, Mr. Chunkygull is now an honorary member of The Old Codgers Club.

I hope GILBERT will be performing on Saturday. I have had my ups and downs with various Gilbertae but the present incarnations have been up to scratch, especially when performing 'The Bird's the Word' - but if only we could have a BRIAN with him while he's doing it.
