This is exactly why I am enjoyimg my 50th year watching Sport since The 1960 Grand National and 1961 Cup Final.


3 Hours 57 Minutes that enthralled, enraptured and enthused all who ran through the whole gamut of emotions with Andy.


Here's too the next round...>:D<

He's got a foul mouth on him. I saw him shout 'c*nt' at least three times. Soap and water, Murray, soap and water.


No! "Our" Andy actually said "You Can't" its short for "You Can NOT be serious" as I understand a former Tennis Star used to say....

Soon will be.


If you had perused his kit bag really closely you would have seen a brochure extolling the virtues of Chatham Docks where my informants tell me he is hoping to put down a deposit on a nearby residence....

Well, sweeping generalisation, but stereotypically men are thought to be more interested in what a woman looks like (young and fit = good mother), women more interested in how powerful / wealthy a man is (good provider for the family).


I can't say I have ever gone out with guy for his money and I am sure there are plenty of other women who are not motivated by money... but I guess the stereotype might have some element of truth about it! I mean, look at the women who seem to be obsessed with what the WAGS lifestyle is like - famous only for spending their footballer husband's money in most cases!

Think you missed a bit Indie


Men like women who are: young and fit = [good for sex for 5 years and then] = good mother.


Think some women like the glamourous WAGS lifestyle - but think most women take as they find and if they love the man and his personality they will stick with him unless he turns out to be a complete loser.

You see, thats me always giving women the benefit of the doubt...

Do bears do poo-poohs in the woods? :))


Reading between the lines I got put in my place very recently.


By complete accident I met up, in October 2008 with someone who went off 33 years ago, in 1976, "with someone much older" when I was seeing her "on and off".


We have met frequently since that incredible fluke that we met up again ( I won't bore you with the details but it was 1,000-1 shot--spooky if you believe in "fate") ...anyway the Guy has died and left her a massive Detached House in Hampshire to add to the even bigger detached house that I visited last week in Park Langley, Bromley which was left to her by her Parents.


We went to that Docklands Show on the water and then she slipped in the magic phrase "Anyone who settles down with someone who is NOT in the same financial situation as themselves is mad...." lol...I can take a hint...:))

Sweeping generalisations always miss a lot, and my comments were tongue in cheek about both sexes. I don't think I have ever known a friend of mine reject a guy for not being a good earner though I have known the odd or two who really do expect a guy to always pay on dates which seems a bit old fashioned to me.

    • Thank you, this really made me chuckle. It's like you met my brother as he would be the one taking more than his share. Plus the 'pikey' chutney is a winner. Unusual as in can't be identified??? Sadly I'm not the host otherwise I would definitely do that I regularly shop in the Cheese Block and am a fan. But as people have pointed out, there is no cheese shop that charges less based on bulk, so Aldi unusual cheeses may be what the familam receive! Yay, so I can get discounted mouse nibbled cheese still! Oooo, now I do love a Stinking Bishop. It actually offends my stepmum by it's stinkiness but luckily she is not one of the attendees at this particular gathering.  This is blooming genius. It's actually my partner who has the biggest issue with buying in plastic so I will have to hide the wrappers from him!
    • I like the look of SD's Sweet and Sour chicken. It's a really good dish when made freshly and well. I'll need to try it. Sad that Oriental Star and Lucky House by Dulwich Library both closed at a similarish time. They were decent, reliable, "British Chinese" takeaways.
    • William S Spicer was a family-owned firm that initially made horse drawn delivery carts for breweries (especially Fullers Brewery in W London) and horse-drawn trams. With the advent of the internal combustion engine, they successfully made the transition to coachbuilding delivery vehicles London's leading department stores using German engines. WW2 interrupted their business for obvious reasons, and their postwar attempt to become the local assembler and distributor of Bulgarian "Izmama" trucks was not blessed with good fortune. In 1953, the company pivoted to being a full-service garage, leveraging their reputation for honesty and excellence.  In 1972, the Dulwich site was sold to its present owners. William S Spicer III (the grandson of the founder) retired to Lancashire, where he founded a sanctuary for the endangered ineptia beetle, which he had encountered in Bulgaria while travelling for business. In 1978, Spicer was awarded an OBE for conservation, and a newly-discovered  beetle was named after him by the Bulgarian People's National Academy of Sciences - Byturus Spicerius.
