Doesn't sound very threatening, does it? Well - you must see a video of a thumping. Hopefully i can post the link. It looks like a bunch of drunken street thugs, but it is actually John Prescott, Tony Blair's former Deputy Prime Minister!!! A while back, he had to thump a guy who hit him with an egg. So if the link doesn't work, type "John Prescott Punch" into YouTube for a good thumping. Cheers.
