Thank god they never built it, it would appear it was to terminate in Townhill Park, that's a bit too close to me in Bitterne Park for comfort: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M27_motorway_(England)

Not free, but I always park at the Kings Mall Shopping centre at Hammersmith & tube the rest of the way. It costs about £13 for the day & it's only 5 minutes walk to the tube.

Booked tickets to see the Bison in a couple of weeks, my youngest son is already excited (as am I) & started jabbering to his mates about it, as for my eldest, he is now officially "too cool" to get excited about things .

The brother of my Scouse mate is a die hard Liverpool fan, but let his season ticket go about 10-15 years ago, due to financial reasons. When his cash flow took a turn for the better he re-applied for a ticket, only to find he was at the end of a very long waiting list. So he gets his prem fix by getting a Wigan ST. I'm told there are quite a lot of Scousers & Mancs who do the same.

I bought a new pc about a year ago & had no problems transfering fron ipod back to itunes, I can't remember specifics, but I would have used the help facilities on itunes to get the job done. Incidentally none of the music I have was bought on itunes, so that shouldn't be an issue.

My Favourites are The Great Escape & bridge on the River Kwia. Oh & don't forget that classic, starring our very own Russell Osman - Escape to Victory.

There are some amazingly clear & poignant photos there, the thing that struck me was just how evil Hermann Goering looks in his mug-shot. The Japanese soldier relieved of his duty in 1974 is still alive, aged 89, he was the penultimate Japanese soldier to give up the fight, the last surrendered in December 1974.

I agree with everything the OP posted, however I just listened to one of the survivors on the radio & she said the fog/smoke was instantaneous, saying that the lights of the car in front suddenly disappeared, all of a sudden there was a collision. It sounds pretty horrific and a situation that any of us could find ourselves in. My condolences go out to those bereaved.

Thanks, but I think you've confused me with someone called Chris.

Personally, wearing a poppy has nothing to do with raising money for the RBL, it's about remembering the sacrifice made by that particular generation, especially (for me) my grandfathers fathers & step grandfather, thankfully, all of which came back. Obviously, the monies raised is a welcome addition, but as I said, it's about thanking that generation for their gallantry & stoicism.

Lukas Jutkiewicz.... is he worth signing?

His sister is my sons PE teacher. -
It would seem to me that some of the posters on here don't actually know what they are talking about (Hypo). Saint_Jonny may have been naive or fraudulent, it's not for me to judge, only he knows what he was thinking when he placed the ad. It would now appear that the post by Whitey Grandad has been accepted as correct, that some are now just trying to clutch at anything to clobber Saint_Jonny with. It's like watching the school bully.

I can't see how selling a car without MOT or SORN is illegal. Driving one may be, that is down to the buyer to check.

Sounds to me that you've given some thought to covering your tracks.

I thought Twxaco was our new african striker we'd signed on loan.

Happens to me as well, not just on The Muppet Show, but Lounge & Main board as well.

How many times a day do you have a look at the Championship table?
Dimond Geezer replied to saintmatt's topic in The Saints
When we went top of division 1 in 1980 something, my mate cut the table from the footy echo & had it paper-clipped to the inside pocket of his crombie. -
When did we last score when playing ten men
Dimond Geezer replied to Saint Without a Halo's topic in The Saints
I realise your old man is joking, but would we be allowed to start a match with 10 players on the pitch & still have a full compliment of subs? I would assume not. -
I really want us to go up as champions & if we should achieve promotion I'll be going mental on the pitch along with everyone else , but conversely I don't want to be in the Prem. Since we've been away, I've become increasingly disillusioned with the prem, and don't miss it one bit, the money, the players, the arrogance, the cheating & now they are on about stopping relegation/promotion. Also the cost of tickets will rocket, my kids are getting older, my youngest has just turned 11,so next season I'll have to pay for his season ticket. For myself & my eldest, this seasons tickets cost me £550, that's bound to increase if we were to go up, + paying the extra for my youngest. If we do get promoted this may be my last year as a STH.

I wasn't a fan when he came here I thought he was a bit lazy & couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo, but I'm pleased to say I've been proven wrong. I think he's one of the first on the team sheet, an he seems to be enjoying his football. I'm surprised to see he's played relatively few matches in his career, and that he has made his most appearances at Saints.

Glad to see the ref showed some common-sense when Sharpe scored yesterday. He removed his shirt to show a tribute to his son on his T-shirt & the ref didn't book him. Well played ref. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/15547176.stm

You weren't alone. I thought the ref was pretty poor. He even managed to confuse the crowd at the start of the minutes silence by blowing his whistle.
