ten years after - where were you?

[rich p]

Little MIkey Owen. I wonder what ever happened to him?

It was a heady night.

Miss Tilly, I can confirm that la belle Claudine can indeed talk and is occasionally coherent.

Ah, I lived in North Wales (AKA "the unfriendly bit"). It's odd as I am actually English, but probably switched over my support to Wales as I went to the same school as Gary Speed (not at the same time) and I also had a weird obsession with Ian Rush as a child (he had a moustache, so I assumed he must be some sort of clone of my dad!)

I think you must have the gift of the gab, Claud!

Now that you mention it, I lived in Aberystwyth for five years, where the English were treated fairly... hated equally across all sports. I don't think we should look any deeper into the weird Ian Rush/moustache/dad thing...

I hope you're not expecting some reciprocal endorsement...

 

[MissTillyFlop]

In which case, you also went to the same school as Michael Owen. And my ex. Hang on, you're not my ex, are you?

PS Well done on not making the crappy Double entendre that everyone makes when they hear where I'm from....

 

[User482]

Don't forget Andy Dorman!

Well I was the year above Michael Owen, I try not to mention this as it makes my life's achievements seem even crappier!

Depends who you are!

Crikey. I know that she was one or two years above Michael Owen. Speaking of whom, he sat by us in the Crown & Liver once...so unless you remember that, it seems that we've not met!

Penarlag?




P.S Got that out of my system many, many years ago.

I was in the bar in Swansea Student Union. They don't like to draw attention to it, but lots of Welsh folk down this way quietly support England when it comes to football, though obviously quite the opposite with rugby. Mind you, I speak as someone who persuaded a German friend to wear an England shirt for the '98 World Cup. She even cried when England went out, despite a soft spot for Batistuta .

I find the same out here in the Wild West. All down to Sky's wall to wall coverage of the EPL. Most youngsters adopt an English team as their own, mostly one of the regular Champion's League participants and so some of their favourite players are England internationals.

I'd only lived here a couple of weeks when that match was played according to Dell's calculations, which surprised me as I thought it was before I moved.

Yup definitely not me! I wonder if I know her? It's a small world etc etc

Me too, so here's a joke for everyone

David Beckham is celebrating; "43 days, 43 days!" he shouts happilly.


Posh asks him why he's celebrating.
He answers "Well Honey, I've done this jigsaw in only 43 days."

"And that's good?" asks Posh.
"You bet Hon" says David."It says 3 to 6 years on the box.

in the worst place to be, in the circumstances, edinburgh.

saw it at my in-laws, who were non-plussed as were all the folk at the end of festival fireworks we went to afterwards, it being a rugby town and all…

I lived in Stockholm at the time and recorded the match to watch later. My mate in Australia phoned that evening and almost told me the score.

I saw the match the next morning and thought there must have been something wrong with the tape!

Later found out that Brian Moore, the TV football commentator, had died that day, missing the match, and thought that he was probably turning in his grave with delight.

I was learning to scuba dive in Malta

In which case the answer was the "Rainbow" in 1974!
