Default Miniature Boxing Gloves

Not sure if this is just a South Yorkshire thing but why oh why does every man and his dog have a set of daft boxing gloves hanging from their interior mirror? Now unless we have an abundance of amateur/pro boxers in this area i just don't get it. Most look like they couldn't fight sleep! Anybody else sick of them????

See them around my area (Mansfield) every so often, They only get put into sheds that are driven by muppets though.

Totally bizarre i agree. From the replies its just us Yorkshire/Notts guys who are looking forward to seeing lots of excellent homegrown new boxers coming on the scene soon! Maybe with a bit of part-time 'drifting' thrown in for good measure!!!

Are the women in S Yorkshire really that bad?

Many, many years ago, a mate of mine owned an E-Type Jag and he would pin up an earing from each bird he pulled in the car, in the headlining above the windscreen! Flash git! Better than silly boxing gloves, though?

So what is the teddy's hanging off the towhook / drifting thing all about?

What does it mean or try to achieve?
