I think Liam wins out tbf, but good effort.

You Tubers. Not ALL You Tubers. Specifically those that: - Speak to the camera that they are holding in one hand while constantly jabbing a finger towards the lens with the other hand. - Set the volume levels so low that you end up turning the TV's volume up really high just to hear them...

Yep, our fat goes out for the birds. Essential fuel at this time of year. Teabags (ripped open) as long as they are paper and contain no plastics, go into the compost bin along with coffee grounds and almost all other food waste (not meat, obvs). They all initially go in a large plastic Chinese...

That's shit! There's talk of giving us a food bin too, but they can shove that as we wouldn't use it.

Used to have something similarly crap in Hinckley. Luckily they saw the light and now we have one blue bin that everything for recycling goes in. So much easier.

Not just me then?

OK, yes, you're very old 😉 (It was 51455 in the ground - recorded, at least - and I was there too, behind the goal in the Covered End, never mind the not yet invented West End. And yes, it was 25 matches unbeaten, broken on the first day in the First Division. Heady days indeed).

Last six looks even better. Blackburn and Baggies there for the taking.

Full Time score: Cov 76-21 Nottm Jimmy Martin hat trick, Biggs with two as a rep., and Hitchcock also gets two. Five points to nil, keeping them in contention to progress. Bigger fish to fry yet in Northampton and Leicester though. Good morale booster, whatever, in front of a poor-ish crowd. Oh...

Cov seem to have found their scoring touch again after it went awol for weeks (months?). HT in the Prem Cup, Cov lead by five converted tries to two despite being down to 14 yet again (Trinder YC). 38-14

Hope springs eternal though. (Christ, I'd almost managed to put the Chilton debacle behind me 😉).

Gerry and the Dreamers. (Yeah I know, a mish-mash of two sixties groups 😉). But! Gerry was just dreaming there. There was also a mooted stadium on the site where the Higgs is now. Neither were ever serious enough to happen, sadly. Thinking back even further, some clown even spread a rumour about...

One of mine too. Only played it the other day. So sad.

Oh fuck. Only just heard about Marianne. Loved all her stuff. Rest easy sweetheart.

Off to Turkey (initially) on an English Heritage members' offer in late April. The first week is visiting various heritage type sites, and then we transfer to a hotel in Rhodes Town for the second week, which is free-to-do-as-one-wishes time. It was a ridiculously cheap offer, so hopefully it...

My dragon just mentioned Mackintosh's Golden Cup. Now that was really nice!

Yep, still going in 1962 by the look of it TOFFO ADVERTS

Definite. Maybe late 50s or early sixties. Think the latter personally.

Originally called Toff-o-Luxe. But again, you'd need to be antediluvian.

Hooray. I don't think I've ever found anyone who remembers them. Was beginning to think I was imagining them 😉. But no, it's just down to growing up in the fifties and sixties (and I don't mean senility...😂).
