  1. For traditional English food I think franklins is the best restaurant in the area and as quids says the herne can get overrun with kids. Franklins is white table cloth type restaurant and not cheap but if you want something reasonably formal it is excellent food.

I can picture the scene HB. Yes I read makems obituary and apparently bob dylan was a fan. I posted a you tube link to makem and clanceys the Dutchman once. Always worth a listen.
  4. Mine is golf. Aged 16 had only played parkland golf before. My dad drove me up to the north Antrim coast for a comp I was playing in and via the coast road we came round the corner and looked down on royal portrush golf club as it snaked through the dunes. An incredible site for me and I will never forgot the feeling of excitement and anxiety it filled me with. My dad has passed away since so if I recall it now it always is tinged with a little sadness too as I guess most memories are.
  5. Oh dear Reggie. I wonder if this chair is going to be into a bit of tough love and bring us all into line.Admin was always a bit of old mr chips but this new chap, I'm not sure what to think.this rules out quids from the betting he's far too relaxed to play that cameo and id rule out bbw too he's too much of a maverick.we are narrowing this down- gradually.
  6. Mattt we would join the premiership if we were allowed in.and by the way you mentioned ticket prices for last nights game but there were 55000 at celtic park last night.so can't fault the support. Celtic need a big money shareholder to invest some cash.second rate players won't get you anywhere in Europe. Maybe europa league is more our level though as we had our best fun when getting to 2003 UEFA final oh and beating Liverpool on the way was good too. You made good points about Michael Owen above. I agree he was all about pace when at his best.I'm not sure he will be a big hit at united and would not fancy him for top scorer.
  7. Angus young also uses a Gibson SG keef so say no more..?

    Redundancy

    Sorry to hear that declan
  9. My first attempt at being serious lounged so quickly. Ill never make any serious yards in this drawing room place.
  10. In a similar fashion to who is the stig we will all search for the identity of this "chair" person. I will commence selling "I am the chair" t shirts and these will sell like hot cakes in Ed and its borders. The search will gather apace and journalists will be drawn to Ed from far and wide. This search will grab the imagination of a nation .... [ I don't expect this thread to be lounged as it is a very serious topic and should be treated as such].
  11. Eh did you not have a prior ban bbw or has your quack done a very good job at putting that memory deep in your sub conscious
  12. I'm told its nice in France this time of year.some might say its almost too hot;-)

  14. Atila Reincarnate Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Celtic 0 - Ruskis 1 > > Nuff said Thanks atila. You never know we might turn it round.were missing our main midfield player which is the key position in tough matches.other than that we have no excuses except a new manager deserves time to get started and its tough playing a team who are already in mid season.
  15. That looks good to me.I guess though that factors in doubts whether he will run. But if he does I'd give him a good chance.

In general we all like lettuce and juice on the way home here in Ed. Keep your baddnesa to yer sel.
  17. Can anyone copy and paste the arc odds? I cannot access betting sites on b berry: thanks. Mm .
  18. Sorry Anna we were rubbish. But did not see it either as on hols.vale would have been good though.
  19. What new sections?. I just refresh the lounge.I will check it out but expect we will end up in lounge bit like kitchen in parties.
  20. Which pubs Anna? That's no good anyway you should say how you suffered during the close down (to make Mark feel good)
  21. Since the 9 cut off its just been me, tom waits and the bottle of duty free ballantines whisky..I have made my own conversation mostly.I have had worse nights with real Company.
  22. Bad bad bad.assumerd it would be a sell out crowd but maybe not.anyway no midfield. The rubbish Italian played well in pre season and he is simply not good enough at euro level. We have been in a few scrapes befoRe though so hope Tony can say right thing at Ht.
  23. More seriously celtic losing at home after 5 mins and still losing after 30.missing our 2 key midfielders with injury sounds like they are bossing middle of pitch. Could be strachan like baptism for Tony m. I'm worried now an away goal behind already.have only lost once in 35 ch league games at home and that was barca.
  24. Far be it for me to gloat.I.had split my 100 holiday betting fund 20 tartan and 80 on rip. So a nice 130 profit on today!ballydoyle always said it was a top horse.just had to get to the front early.
  25. Obviously UEFA disagree with bob paisley jah lush Anna Matt etc.not many players have won 2 European player of the year awards.its just another case of the best player in the English league being automatically assumed to be the best generally. In continental Europe Keegan will have a higher standing.
