      Would you like TP back? Though he's doing well at Middlesborough. Met him once; really nice chap.

      He’s been manager twice....some might feel a step back...but we need a rethink that’s for sure. Yes I get the feeling he’s a nice chap - like Lambert though who is a similar roll your sleeves up sort of guy....think the damage was done before he arrived...and he had to pick up the pieces...

  6. Oh no...BGT’s on in this place :(

      I've grown little flaps that come down over my ears for such times. I sit merrily at my modelling table oblivious to it all.

      Are Opal fruits still around? I assumed they just changed the name to Starburst the same way Marathon became Snickers...grr.

      Could be a lot worse.

       

      They could be training to become members of certain other forum sites - you know - the ones nobody talks about by name (certainly not in polite company, anyway).

  9. Took the car for a check as steering wheel shuddering - two new tyres, balanced and aligned and £140 lighter - bang goes that new loco...

      Glad you discovered it in time, Pete. Now be a good modeller and go cut the food and heating budgets instead :-)

      Think Mikkel’s got a valid point there...

      To be honest...new tyres, locos all go on my credit card so am spending money I don’t have in general...

      Ha! No thanks - as great as he was for the club, that would be a step backwards...just need to sort our defence out...

      Be careful with these October jollys. I did Stoptober 3 years ago & haven't smoked since. I've not been chilled out or happy since!

      I misread that a Solder October. Here's to a Brazing November!

      If it's toffee everyone can stick together.

      Old Speckle on its own is like drinking vinegar. You should get a "Strongarm", or a pint of "the Legend"

      Just seen the cast reunion photo in one of the newspapers. Francis Ford Coppola looks scarily similar to Saddam Hussein.
