That Leeds side were excellent. I was at West Ham when Paul Reaney broke his leg right in front of us- we heard the crack!

I caught the Revie team a number of times. It's a physical game that sometimes spills over to a bit of a scrap. If we were celebrating two footed tackles, over the top tackles or the way that George Best could be targeted and taken out of the game that would be a separate thing. Don't be so po faced! Here's another great match. What we forget almost half a century later was the passion - no prawn sandwiches in those days, real time betting, or leaving early for half time and getting back late. It wasn't all about trouble on the terraces. And it was a time when the players would have a booze up in their favourite local pub afterwards. And jumpers for goal posts.

I saw Little Richard at Lewisham Odeon


Little Richard's return to Lewisham Odeon in July 1975 seemed to have been memorable though for all the wrong reasons. Mick Farren's review in the New Musical Express described 'The debut date of Little Richard's UK tour at the half empty Lewisham Odeon' as 'little short of a disaster. Possibly the person least to blame was Little Richard himself'.

First came across him in Our Lucien in the Liverbirds, great in the drama GBH loosley based on Derek Hatton, younger generations Thomas the Tank Engine (softer toned narration than the original Ringo) and in more recent years narrated various stuff although not recorded on IMDB.

    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.

    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
