So much so that Hamish Husband the "spokesperson" for the Tartan Army has called Mars a disgrace for daring to put the St George's Flad on their sweet wrappers during the world cup.

Some people really need to seek help!!

Is anyone else confsed why a Danish beer is suddenly the epitome of all things English? It's just a bit odd frankly. (I suppose they ruled the south east for a while, but a bit before the Corinthian Casuals were formed surely).

Anyone else going to the Kingstonian v Arsenal game atthe end of the summer btw?

Council tenants love to do this .


I would guess that it would have a negative effect on house prices .



Running after a leather ball is fairly silly too. To stop the flagwaving at source you need to ban football. And Brendan, have you ever been a Fenian bast*ard from the Republic? When you drive through certain villages in Nornireland those pretty flags are not at all very welcoming. Bit like Woof's pub.

    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
