Really good to see everybody - Brought back a load of memories.
Not being a footie kind of a guy these days I probably won't come back this way very often. But i will make sure I DO come back to the Heath for catch ups as often as I can.
I will also make a point of coming to a game at Falmer...
Yeah! Egg on legs - or was it Jeff on toast?
And remember Bob won all AJ's wonga in a card game on the first night and then had to pay for everything for him. never did work out who came out best from that card game:shrug:
I shared a room with him on two memorable Club 18-30 holidays, first in Toremolinos then in Santa Ponsa Mallorca. Funny old thing - we never actually spent very many nights in our own room, it was sort of whoever managed to talk some poor unsuspecting sort into a liaison first got the room for...
Baggie
Was it you who mentioned Banoffie pie?
I believe it was me who introduced Martin to it. About a million years ago we used to go to the Uncle Sams sit down in Kemp town (It changed it's name to Samsons, and don't know what it is called now). We always had the same thing - Fresh Banana...
I don't know that one John, but in the spirit of never letting the facts get in the way of a good story.
Did I ever tell you the story about the 100,000 Glasgow Rangers supporters...................................................................................................
BTW I actually...
Nearly 19:00 16-07-2010
Just gonna log on to the memorial share a tear and a beer with Martin, Then I am of to this
Fat Blokes Sevens - Kindly Donated by CHP Consulting
I think some of you would like it. Black tie and Wellies Cuzza tonight then a day of the coarsest of coarse rugy tomorow...
The only thing that worries me about this is the possibility that the Sussex constabulary could pitch up and empty their "unsolved" book in about twenty minutes of earwiging
Careless talk and all that
The Lancing lot WERE a bunch of nutters - no doubt about that.....
But then there was a lot of it about in those days!!!!!!
Crikey - that Aldershot game...... I was only a young whippersnapper then, and I can honestly say that when it all kicked off with the old bill and all I was very very...
Have to say, I don't remember some of what Reevesy is putting on me..... Sorry If I clumped you mate, but I honestly don't remember doing it. And I certainly don't remember doing - or even saying - anything untoward at Gilingham:shrug:
I do remember the Newcastle trip though.
That was a...
I'll be there - No worries. Really looking forward to remembering such a good mate in good company.
Question.
Is there a Porno cinema in Haywards Heath for me to stay in - I understand that the last train from HH is on a Wednesday and I don't much fancy the M25 on about 20 pints and nostalgia?
I am up for the 31st.
Another little anecdote which really gives an insight into Martins way of thinking.
Some dimwit teacher at Oathall had taken it upon himself to tell Martin that he would never make anything of his life. Less than two years after leaving school Martin was working as an...
Hi Rory.
Literally any time except that weekend. If it were down to me I would find a way, but I am 100% convinced that the Memsahib excercise her vetoe, and I would probably end up divorced ...............................again!!
SARAH
I would really like to come to any kind of tribute to your dad. We were really good mates in our late teens and early twenties and I do not want to miss out. But I can't do the weekend of 24th July because it is my daughters wedding. Literally any other time would suit me. I don't...
Hey Reevesy
Chris Tampsett here. I have never used this board before but just had to pay tribute to my old mucker. Good to hear you are still alive. For anyone who wants it - my email is chris@act1.biz I would love to hear from all the old reprobates.
Mate - I will never forget that trip...
Chris - You say your dad like curry!!!! No Really?
I remember in about 1977 having a Phall eating contest with your dad. I believe he managed about 3 (no, not spoonfulls - portions) to my two. We both spent the next week with our arses in a fridge. As your dad would say though "We did it"...
One thing I will always remember about Martin from way back when we were teenagers. His mum and dad had a new central heating system. His mum liked it really hot, but his dad didn't. Needless to say, the memsahib pulled rank and the dial was welded to about 30 degrees Celsius. Martins dads...
The Copenhagen trip! Wow!
First stop Hamburg - The Reeperbahn - I believe several of the visitors got their cherries popped that day, then on to Copenhagen via a game of seriously violent rugby on the German / Danish border. I'll never forget a crunching spear tackle by Martin on John...
