[Fulwood Blade]

I jest not that in my 61 years of attending matches I feel like I've travelled an awful long way in a journey that has no end. I'm just hoping for all the generations following behind me we get the results to keep us in the automatics. That would have made it worthwhile.

Well done Toronto Blademan returns

Very poignant - think generations like ours have been through some crap in our time.

Bet you shed a tear

[LONDON_BLADE]

No probs, in the eighties I lived in Ealing and some of us southerners got a load of sweat and T shirts made up with this Logo on them, still have a couple, its why I use it.

[BigBed]

Been trying all morning, but I'm sore now so I've had to stop, and our lass has had a pop at me for making a mess!
But I managed about 3 1/2 feet, estimated, from the bog, to just before the door.
Il try again later when I've recovered and the kids are in bed

Were you the guy that shared a Yurt with me and that lovely Mongolian family just outside Ulan Bator in spring 2009?
We had Khorkhog and horse milk for dinner.

[The Vicar]

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

But hopefully to the PL!
