wolfie Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Originally called 'the lying down game' which I've done for years, so hardly 'new'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 I never had you down as being a plank-er Wolfie Renamed by the Autralians I believe. So which public places have you done it in and did you ever hurt yourself. Upload some pics.. we could start a topic purely for plankers (or is that plonkers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 The head has to be straight and inline with the body and the arms by the side Wolfie We took a similar one of our dog's first attempt at planking yesterday.. maybe you and her could practice together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingnut Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Planking originaly started on the parade ground tha knows. Although Planking was primarily a Brittish tradition, like all things good, it soon became very popular in Spain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingnut Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 I wonder why the Spaniard fell forwards, and the Guardsman fell backwards?. Is Bin Laden now a plank? All of these questions are sent to test me powers of reasoning. It what keeps me bright and alert yer know. What a sloppy bunch the Guardsmen are. Some with a tightly clenched hand, some with a loosely clenched hand. First Guardsman on the left front row, looks like he's scratching his leg. And the bloke with the sword has forgotten to tell someone to pollish his left boot. Never in my day I say, never in my day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted May 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 nice ones Wingy and Wolfie. The english guard has got it completely wrong though Wingy as he is not lying face down which probably explains why none of his chums are bothering to look at him ... the spaniard however has got it spot on hence a couple of glances of appreciation As for Snoopy... wonder what every happened to him I've seen a picture of a Wolves player and a council bod planking today but I'm not allowed to upload them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingnut Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Penalty for Planking on parade = 21 days with loss of pay. The charge would be something like, did not have breakfast on Queens parade: Unfit For Duty. Shun! Abaarrrt Tuuurrn! Double Time, left rigt left right, L, R L,R L,R Get him out of my sight!
