    Kindest Regards and Felicitations for the Season

    Got back from work last night/this morning and was just relaxing in front of the TV and found myself watching Sky Sports News. The upside of this is that it is live so when I looked at the time realised it was 7:15am which was 2:15am here. Anyway one of the reasons I watch is that it gives...

    6500 odd posts and out

    Just posted for the last time on the old board. Odd sort of feeling as at various times over the last 10 years or so I have been glued to it. Not lately of course as 2 kids and moving and not actually having barbel to fish for has lessened my interest and available time. That said I am so...
