your bothered look at jezza's score, seem to recall something about a toy car but other toy car incident was coach home from SC**thorpe (first time) packed with WHGS second formers and at least 1 first if you were there." We want our mini back " oh how mature we were

Dim recollections of Sc*nthorpe, might've gone with my old man? Seem to recall driving through where Flixborough used to be?

Brian Sweeney told me about the guy running the toy car along the top of the permiter barrier.....he once gave the car a good push and tried to race it but slipped...when asked if he was OK the chap struggled to his feet and replied "no...the bugger beat me"

I think maybe having a cardboard cut out of Ian Morris stood at the intersection of half way line and touch line waiting for a pass would bring back some glory...have an inbuilt sound system with "you could plant spuds on that wing" playing non stop too.

And I don't worry about my Peake rating..there is only one thing worse than being peaked and that is not being peaked.

We have never replaced the flying Scotsman (God rest his soul) either have we  so we could do with a jag hurtling up the M6 doing barrow in less than an hour.

Quick journies i recall
goole homeward leg and getting in the bullshead halebarns bang on opening time (5.30pm) Austin maxi

and i swear i once did runcorn to the railway iin under 15  (posh 2 litre cavalier) 120 plus along M56

and Stafford to the Railway in under 40 with 72 stone in the car!!!! 1.3 escort estate which died slightly afterwards

can anyone see the logic behind such reckless driving if licensing laws had been longer there would have been no need

Somebody needs to retrieve George Heslop's legendary bobble hat from on top of Netherfield's main stand, too.

I recall going to the title decider at Worcester In Rob Sharpe's mini but without knowing the fact we were champions till we got to the Grapes in Alty, advised by some never go, never would "fan". We couldn't suss why cars were flashing lights at us with the Alty scarves trailing out of the windows. Was a bit rough on the way out of St georges Lane that day but we were ok.

Ok, whover it is, peake me again then!
