Re the discussion about Suspiscious Scrotes.
I dont know if this is just a Manchester style or a new national dress code but scrotes (in the 15 to 30 age group) up here all wear the the feckin same thing!!

Baseball cap: compulsory
Shirt : Horizontal multi coloured stripes-LaCoste etc.
Jacket: Nike hooded top-hood worn in "up" position in all weathers-more sartorially "left field" types wearing baseball cap at same time.
Pants : Tracksuit bottoms-various big name brands-with elasticated "cuffs" 150 to 200mm from top of footwear,usually black/beige/dk blue-striping optional.
Socks : Ba*tard "Bart Simpson" or other such feckin cartoon boll*cks showed off proudly to full effect due
to cut of above tracky bottoms.
Footwear : no if's no but's - "Rockport" boots black/brown.
Wheels : 0-14years nicked BMX 14-30years nicked XR2/3i/yours/my car.

I was just wondering if this cutting edge Manc fashion has percolated down to the rest of you yet?

I think the sizing thing is partly to do with the fact that if you wear stolen gear, you can't take it back to the shop to swap it for the right size.

Up here in Nukearsehole they're often chaperoned by the female of the species - "Charva's" - whose tribal allegiance is donoted by unfeasably large presssed gold earings, pedal pushers and a fine array of scrunchies. They drink Bacardi Breezers or Archers and Lemonade and will drop their knickers for a pack of 10 Lambert and Butlers.

Here in Essex it is obligatory to show off any wealth at all by wearing as much gold around your neck and sovreign rings as possible. Trouble is though, the local yoof go around with their knuckles dragging on the floor due to the extra weight.

(P.S. They are all either called Darren or Jason!)

Is Charva regional dialect? Down here in Kent my daughters refer to them as Chavs, as typified by residents of "Chavham" (Medway town). Otherwise much the same (lack of) elegance and taste.

At the school next door to us they have mufti days when the boys don't have to wear uniform. The funny thing is that they dress more alike on mufti days that on uniform days, sad little gits.

Keith my thirteen year old niece lives in the Medway Towns and when I ripped the piss out of her for wanting a "jointed clown" necklace for her birthday was responded to with the quote of "I aint no chatem chav" !!!! what a fine elegant young lady she's destined to be....

Seem to remember that Charva was in use in my younger days in Birkenhead.

Wondered how long it would be until someone mentioned Chatham and the Medway towns!
It really must be the Chav and Geezer capital of England. I know 'cos I live there!
Only ever venture into 'tarn' for the bank, but it really is a dump! All the girls have a pram, parrot perch gold ear rings, Gold soverings on every finger and of course a hideous clown around the neck.

We always used to call those types of girls 'Kappa Slappers' since they usually worn tracksuit bottoms with the logo written down the side.

I think i've lost the plot with this whole 'Charva' thing.
What is the definition of a 'Charva'?



I've never heard that expression used before,
and what is the significance of the clown?

There's that whole other group called Greebo or similar name. They're the ones wearing Offspring tops and large flaired jeans with a chain dangling from them.

The clown seems to be an essential piece of Medway town jewellery. They are usually about the size of an average mobile phone and hang around the neck on a nice thick gold chain!
Why anyone would want to wear a tacky statue of a clown around their neck I don't know! Looks laaarvly though!

No, this lot are the 'Moshers'. I've got a 12 year old one at home. The main thing with the clothes is to wear them as though you are Tom Hanks at the end of BIG.
