Fitter than Davis anyway, according to the laydees.

Yes

An exception to the rule is loan deals in England are not officially counted as transfers. The only other loophole is if a player moves to or from a third club that plays their season during the summer, such as in Ireland.

No, Lambert and Hammond CAN be loaned out, but I can't see it happening.

+1.

Scouts have been turning up in increasing numbers at St Marys according to todays Echo. However, Lambert & Hammond are protected by a FIFA ruling that prevents footballers from playing for more than two clubs a season. So anyone worried about these 2 players leaving in January don't need to.

Interesting, never knew that one. Cheers Baj, Merry Xmas

Yes we do.

So, the worst part of Christmas has got to be the bin collections. Our recycle bin gets emptied every 2 weeks and is normally full. It was last emptied last Thursday (17th Dec). The next time it will be emptied is January 4th 2010! By then it'll be so full that the lid will be partly open and the bin men will refuse to empty it (as per their rules) as it could be too heavy for them and they may heard their back (diddums). So, when our recycle bin is full do we stop recycling? Of course not as you get fined, so what happens? It's not our fault that we have to wait an extra week for the recycle bins to be emptied, and as such I feel the binmen SHOULD empty the bins if the lids are open, as a one off. Thoughts? Calvin?

I remember when this was done last year, got deleted in the end.

Have you asked Ess?

I enjoyed reading this so much, that I thought some others might enjoy. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/top10s/2776541/Top-10-Boxing-Day-massacres.html?offset=0

Bluestar No 15 serves Sholing, comes from Weston, along pompey road, up Botley Road, along Bursledon Road and then I think it stops in Bitterne. At least you'll be half way there. http://www.bluestarbus.co.uk/bs15.shtml Mmm.... could catch it to Wrights Hill and knock off 20mins of the journey.

Nope

atm football is the only thing keeping me happy, sad and pathetic but still, and hopefully i'll be able to stay for the whole game.

Cheers, normally leave mine at 12:30pm Blonde and shortish?

Established????

Too expensive!!!! Would cost over £20 on Boxing Day! Cheers though. Ess?!? I'll be going via Pompey Road, Woolston, over the Itchen Bridge, through St Marys up to Bedford Place.

And April last year?

I know Bluestar are running buses, but what about First Group? Anyone know? *EDIT No, no they're not Nice 2 hour walk for me Boxing Day then from Botley Road, Sholing all the way to Bedfords in Bedford Place

And what about April last year? and what about last week?

Which means it'll be chucking it down with rain here later then raining a little now as it is. Hypo - sorry to hear that, hope he's alright.

I think we should both go to Bridgend.
