They know what it is but they call it something different, their word starts with an S or something

If you're only going for the weekend, shouldn't you be heading back around that time? I will be driving back, so i'll be missing this one. :(

We could have a right supporters club on Saturday..wear your RR or Official club merchandise so that we can all bitch together if we can't find anywhere..I'm cautiously optimistic though

any luck HH?, or are you wandering the broad boulevards of Carrot Town with a ladder tucked under your arm, looking for a house with a Sky dish on the roof and with no dog dish in the yard?

Just returned from the mountain, spoted heap of Phoenix gear being wore around, sorry I was to
ratted to spot a telly, but they sell Guinness in the Powderhorn and there was a good night of Reggae in the Projection Room net door.
 
You know the FallOut Festival finishes on Saturday so the TV's should be turned on.

Well luck of sorts...by the time i got the kids to bed and into a bar (Alpine Rocks?) we were a goal down.

Staff were great to act on my request to change from Rugby to Football. Met an Essex lad who had recently moved to Welly so hopefully after I talked the Nix up he'll be an xtra at the Ring of Fire. However, on watching the game he may prefer to keep with a managerless Hammers side....
