  1. Terrible writing. Every sentence is a new paragraph. So tired of this sort of thing. Group connected sentences into paragraphs; it makes the reading task easier. It really does!
  2. I disagree strongly with this. I have subscribed to SP for many years. I get to hear a live commentary for every game. And there are usually highlights, or extended highlights, posted a couple of days after each match. Sometimes, they also will post an entire game on there, which is great! As far as free streams go, on the many times I've tried to find an acceptable stream, I've had no luck. The feed invariably stops and starts. It's just too frustrating to deal with.
  3. Recently watched a wonderful film called Tracks. It is a dramatized account of Robyn Davidson's 1977 trek across the western Australian desert - a 1700 mile journey she did in nine months with 4 camels and a dog. Not much of a plot, but the film is still captivating - gorgeous scenery and beautifully shot.
  4. "You are fighting men who love death more than you love life." Chilling. It really is a death cult.
  5. Hiking is better!
  6. If you're into picturesque villages with quaint tea shops, friendly locals - that sort of thing - then there's the Cotswolds, and Lacock in Wiltshire.
  7. Lake District (but try to avoid peak tourist season) Yorkshire Dales Dorset (e.g., hike from Lulworth Cove to Durdle Door) Cornwall (many picturesque villages and beautiful beaches) Norfolk Broads (with boating as an option) canals in the midlands (travelling on them by barge)
  8. No. You need to stop and get as close to Stonehenge as you can. When I was a kid in the 60s, you could get right up to the stones. Now you can only walk around them on a circular path.
  9. OK, then - 3 goals from 52 appearances.
  10. Just to be a pedant - no, it says players who have played since you've supported saints. Don't have to have actually "seen them". Niemi Dodd, Fonte, Svensson, Bridge Paine, Ball, Le Tissier, Sydenham Ron Davies, Channon
  11. I was in fifth form at St. Mary's College in Bitterne back in 1969. The Beatles single "The Ballad of John and Yoko" was released at the end on May. The opening line of the song: "Standing in the dock at Southampton; Trying to get to Holland or France ...". Twice every day - to and from school - on the Hythe Ferry, I passed the main Southampton docks servicing the passenger liners. Every time I hear that song, I think of those wonderful ferry rides across Southampton Water.
  12. Ah, yes, Mark Hughes - that prolific scorer ... of yellow cards. Pity he couldn't score anywhere near as many goals!
  13. Best thing I've read about Saints for a long time. Very perceptive.
  14. At half-time I always have Marmite on Toast and a cup of tea in my Saints mug!
  15. Maybe he meant they have extended their period of time at the top, rather than increased the point spread?
  16. Come on, Saints!
  17. One of the great rock 'n' roll performances on live TV. PLAY LOUD!
  18. Come on, Saints!
  19. Yes, indeed. They call it team-spirit.
  20. ditto
  21. And now we can celebrate Wagamama's first goal for the club.
  22. Great win! Congrats to VW for his first goal.
  23. The ref "verballed" the ref, says AB. "Verballed", FFS!
  24. Come on, Saints!
