I wouldn't use the toilets on Aeroflot. Didn't trust the door handles.

Wycombe play 3 up front. He's called Akinfenwa.

Yeah, your works visa must have helped. I found it a lot more arduous. I had to report to a local office (I think it was within 5 days) and I queued and waited for hours and hours 3 days in a row. Every time I went I would be in a queue and when they felt like shutting up shop for the day...

And still at times, Cousins plays like his feet are stuck in treacle.

Merry Christmas to you too, MMJ. Hope you have a great Christmas.

Daughter is well aware now. She definitely veers towards me rather than her mum and we are a lot closer. In fact, we have always been very close, as we have so much in common.

Yes, been and it is mightily impressive. I do find Russia oppressive though. Lots of uniforms and bureaucracy everywhere you go. I didn't notice any racism when I have been there, but then hardly saw a black person anywhere. Best place for me was St. Petersburg, which I absolutely loved and...

Yeah. That sums it up rather.

No. We met online through a series of coincidences. It was a chat site, but not exactly a dating site. Coventry - Volgograd, twin cities. She actually learnt about Coventry at school. Then found out we had the exact same birthday and then found out her sister and my brother also had the...

Yup. She is rather unique though.

Tricky one. We had the marriage all booked and arranged. I started to have doubts, but got ill and ended up.in hospital. Actually got off my hospital bed and discharged myself so I could get married.(it was two days later). We also had a lot of coincidence in our lives that seemed to lend...

My missus doesn't celebrate our Christmas and will only celebrate the Russian Christmas. Only watches Russian state TV and refuses to believe any other media source.

Yep. After the first couple of months.

Younger. She is very old fashioned though. A big fan of Putin, homophobic and tuts when our daughter watches any programme with any swearing in it at all. Apparently my letting her watch that swearing has encouraged our daughter to turn to rap music. Ha. Our daughter is 15.

To be fair, it wasn't my wife's idea, this was all her sister, but my missus obviously went along with it all and didn't say anything. I sent loads of songs over to her of my favourite bands and songs and she never, ever said she didn't like any of it. She came over and I took her to see...

Ha. I wish. I love that, she doesn't. Not any sort of bastardisation

Ahh, and therein lies a tale. We met online. Her likes seemingly matched mine completely. Everything I liked, she liked..... or so I thought. I found out much later that everything she had written, had in fact been written by her older sister, and everything she said she had in common with me...

Classical music.

God knows. She's a nice person, but we have zero in common, so I go to concerts with my daughter, watch the likes of The Walking Dead, Sherlock, Fargo, Taskmaster etc with her and we hang out together too at places like Fargo. My wife likes none of the above.

Nice to know I am not the only one without friends. Used to be five of us all go up the City, ST's. They all dropped off one by one. Then I had all my old school mates, but they went by the wayside, and then my mates from my theatre group, but one then moved to London, one to Stratford and the...
