I barely got through the question about whether I lived within 5 miles of the stadium. After fiddling with my sextant, Omsung Phine and telescope, I finally figured it out. Cheers Oliver.

Slough. First ever game was at the old Dolphin Stadium vs. Hitchin Town in the 60s, Athenian League. First "real" league game was QPR, Div 3. My first serious g/f's family moved to Sussex (Kingston/Lewes) so needless to say my uni all-conquering Subbutro team (take that, Walsall, Halifax and...

Mr. Piggle, for kindergarten jokes, that is absolute qualla .:thumbsup:

Ogdens Nut Gone Flake Magical Mystery Tour EP Woodstock The Herd Seagulls (Flying High) And my Hornby Dublo train set ********.

True Story: My 8-year old son watched it, here in Hawaii with his older brother. Until then he was an ace swimmer, a natural. He's 21 now and STILL refuses to swim or even paddle in the ocean. This is in Hawaii, 80 degree water year round and awesome beaches. To quote the late great Ian Dury...

I would like to proffer my Conger Ratulations on this JdJ, but I don't think the OP heard this fish tail propperly, Shteve Salmon should offer him a herring aid. .

I've been an expat for over 40 years now and tried returning to Brighton permanently twice (1983 from NY, 1990 from Santa Fe) and lasted a few months before the lure of the US brought me back. I dearly love Brighton, but it's changed a lot since my young day. Having lived in Hawaii for over 20...

That's easy KZ. In a related Hawaiian "joke": How does an English elephant climb a Palm Tree on Maui? Sits on a coconut and waits til spring How does an English elephant get down from a Palm Tree on Maui? Sits on a coconut and waits til fall. How can you tell if an English elephant has...

Well, it's a round-trip, innit? Maybe that accounts for the blank stares. Never was good with punch lines. I blame a surfeit of eels...and mai tais, m'lud :cheers::mad:

Much as I love an obscure joke that no-one understands because it's distinctively English and I'm on the other side of the world, imagine the frustration at explaining the following side-splitter to a colonial colleague: Me: What's black, steaming, and comes out of Cowes backwards? Colonial...

Just the thing for the hammock. 30 nicker from the tanned gentleman in the back of the room. Plus a tenner for REMF. They'll need to go slow boat so add that in. Unless you feel like a drive want to use the recently opened bridge...

Sadly not, Wolfie. There are a few lurkers who occasionally emerge with similar chronolgy and even fewer posts than me. I was around from circa 1999 working the NSC Night Shift due to the time difference. Had some mini-meat-ups when visiting Brighton and the Big Smoke with some of the old lags...

Back in the days of Skint, I practically raised my young kids on Fat Boy Slim while driving them hither and yon. His album "Back to the Norm" is based on the originals of samples he used on his cuts. So "Demons" feat. Macy Gray on Halfway Between the Gutters has the intro from Bill Withers'...

Gotta defend Dustin Hoffman. Just rewatched Rain Man last night and he's genius. One of the first date movies I ever saw was The Graduate, also genius. Likewise Midnight Cowboy. Method actor par excellence. Few I can't tolerate. But then again I'm still on the fence with Basil Brush after all...

As the bishop said of the actress. Ooh er missus! My strange hobby has to do with collecting clothes. Moonshine, washing line. Thanks for asking. They fit me fine. (This is for you, HWT :rock:)

Will raise a strong mai tai is his direction later (sun not quite over the yardarm just yet). BG was a subject of footy (or IT) conversation occasionally all the way out here in Hawaii and as a youth referee, I never did look at left backs without thinking of BG at some point and smiling to...

If you could post the audio version I could use my nice new herring aids:clap:
