It is incredible that he had been attending our games through 10 decades - surely unique.
RIP indeed. |

Great entertainer, a pity we never saw him at his best in div 1.
I saw him and Stanley many times and it is difficult to choose which one was better. Marsh for strength, Bowles for speed. |

Analytics worked for Brighton and Brentford. Perhaps we need lessons. |

Ainsworth wasn't sacked until October 28, when we were 23rd.
At least Marti doesn't look as ill or as haunted as Ainsworth did, although his brow is a bit furrowed.
I have to ask how much say Marti had in the signings we have made, as with the exception of Nardi, I don't think anybody is playing to the standard we would like.
Also Paal and Field have both retrogressed. Why? |

Jimmy Ruffin and "What becomes of the broken hearted" for me. Johnnie Walker played it over and over on Caroline. |

Not sure about the squirrel analogy. They are verminous parasites who eat everything I put out for the birds and steal our blueberries |

Also had a cartoon cinema at Waterloo Station just by platform 1 . They then changed it to show soft porn movies. Just what the tired commuter needs before heading home to Virginia Water. |

I wish someone would instruct me how to open a tin of baked beans without damaging several fingers and smearing everything in sight with beans and getting the memsahib in a strop. |

Hardly any bees this summer in West Sussex. Last summer we found a large bumble bee nest in a shady area. Bees all over everything. Then one day there were none. Investigated and discovered a big crater where the bees nest had been.
Badgers!
Sometimes nature is brutal. But that's how it should be without man sticking his oar in. |

Did we not sign the one season goal machine Stuart Wardley from Rushden and Diamonds? |

I used to go to Griffin Park about 1957 and there was a huge neon lucozade sign overlooking the ground. I remember a crowd of 20k for an amateur cup semi final (Barnet v Woking). They bumbled along in the old 3rd Division South and then announced their "First Division in 5 years" plan which involved splashing out on big names and ultimately led to running out of money and the QPR takeover scheme. |

For those with longer memories, the diminutive Alan Spratley didn't fare too well. |

Dyrham Park, where they filmed most of Remains of the day, is just a short bus ride away, especially if you are on the lookout for a retirement property. |
