It's uncle Ernie day tomorrow, the excitement mounts.😮

@PaulSB I see BRs have sacked the manager.
I think from various comments that it's the owner that needs to go.

Yes, very true but unlikely to happen. No one understands why they want to own the club. They've turned down some good offers, including one from a guy I know who's a diehard Rover.

Geddy sticking to Bruce like glue. He clearly knows he isn't right.

Im Just hoping its a bug or parasite, and not pancreatitis. I love that dog to bits and it'd break my heart to lose him.

I think the £64,00 question is why

Morning. Horrible here. Cold with rain/sleet most of the day along with an easterly wind making it feel even colder. I won’t be venturing far.

£150 from Ernie.

 

[PaulSB]

Good morning.

There's a perfectly reasonable explanation for this. I'm sure the young man had stayed late at the archaeological dig that he was selflessly helping out at. The others had left but he needed to finish clearing up. Someone obviously, very carelessly, left the shell laying on the ground, pointy end up. Our poor victim had muddy, wet trousers and decided to change them. Unfortunately he slipped backwards into the trench landing on the randomly discarded shell. It's probably a regular hazard for WW1 enthusiasts.

Thet NE wind is a killer.

Good morning. Dark, cold and very blowy. Yesterday's ride must have been tough as my body is still tired but the good news is my legs feel great. Months of work have gone into rebuilding strength and my last two rides seem to have shown it's working. 👏

#2SP today and I must dive off to get her. She's only 15 months and still needs a decent mid-morning nap........similar to her Granddad as he's only 861 months!!!! 😱 Put like that it doesn't seem long.

Rovers are at home. The coach charlatan got the boot yesterday. We travel to Ewood with high hopes this evening. Damien Johnson, youth coach, is a true Rover. He can do it for us.

Taking Bruce to the vets for 1000hrs. Geddy will be left alone for about an joir, his first time ever on his own.
