A rather surprising end to my enjoyable trip to Derby.

I once shared the business lounge on a Stranraer to Belfast ferry with Catchphrase host Roy Walker. He had a rather outsized opinion of himself and an spent 2 hours telling me at great length of his dislike for Cilla Black .

Can't think how to make this Blades related, but I'm bound to have mentioned them on his occasional pause for breath.
 
Do you mean Max Miller?

He once made a joke about walking on a narrow mountain goat track, just wide enough for one person, with a sheer drop down one side, when he met a beautiful woman walking towards him. "I didn't know whether to block her passage or toss myself off" he said.

Once had to stand up to let a young fella squeeze past me to get to his seat in the stand, a few seats away. He was struggling as his leg was in pot and I asked him how he was progressing and shared a joke. The match was away at Huddersfield. The fella was one of my favourite defenders recovering from injury but still a Blades fan determined to sit with the fans - Chris Wilder - true Royalty!
 
What's wrong with Leicestershire? It's a delightful county full of really nice villages. Sadly let down by Leicester itself which is a dump.

Agreed BoT. I was thinking of Leicester at the time of writing. Dreadful place, chronic over congestion and that dreaded A47.

I once saw Marlon Dingle buying football boots in Sports Direct in Harrogate. I didn't know his real name so called him Marlon, he didn't seem to mind.
