    Who did you really dislike but now like?

    One of my sporting heroes is/was Ray Reardon and at the time, I resented the fact that Davis took over from him as the world no 1. I now respect him in much the same way as I do Reardon.

    Sam Smith of Reading.

    Sounds like heaven to me and I guess 'walk' is essential. I used to travel up to Harrogate a fair old bit and always stayed at the Harewood Arms. A belly full of Sam's finest then literally fall into bed. Full english the next morning and ready to face the world again. Happy days.

    Where Would You Like To Live ?

    Having travelled throughout the UK and Europe on business and leisure, there is nowhere else I'd like to live really as I would miss home too much, wherever home happens to be. Would like to return to Cov one day as it holds many happy memories and represents my roots. Apart from the City, I...

    Things that annoy you

    And many companies still pay mega bucks to ad agencies and brand/image consultants to come up with these ridiculous strap lines. It's probably an urban myth but I'm sure that the toilet paper manufacturer Izal (happy 60's and 70's schooldays) came up with Izal - the paper with the crisper...

    Is a new Goalkeeper a priority

    Also forgotten about Eric McManus who was...........forgettable. Didn't Ramsbottom carry on as No1 when Glazier finished?

    Is a new Goalkeeper a priority

    I remember a game against Leeds on a Friday night in 1968/69 with 40,000 at HR which we lost 0-1 due to a Glazier howler and the Pink/CET headline was 'Bill Boobs'. But I'm sure he played next game. Other than Bob Wesson and Allan Dickie, I can't remember any of Glazier's understudies and none...

    Austrailians/Aussie accent - Sort of urgent

    Close enough for me Otis. And the word 'except' was a big clue.

    Austrailians/Aussie accent - Sort of urgent

    Bit late i know but could have taken voice lessons from Skippy perhaps? 'Tch, Tch, Tch, Tch, Tch' 'What's that Skip, Clancy's fallen down the mineshaft and broken her leg?'

    Window Cleaners

    Sacked ours off as it was £10 for no more than 5 minutes work. The windows were often full of streaks and some of the ledges were not done. Also the 'I'll be round once a month' turned into every 3 weeks with constant hassle for payment. Not worth it in the end. Does your round cover Cheshire BBR??
