Size of that bloody alligator


Incredible creature.

 

I'm glad she isn't actually one of your customers as there is no need to ask she's a smooth operator

 

Good stuff with your plans, but don't overthink it, just be cool. ^^ That is overthinking. She likes you, you like her, enjoy it.

 

Any idea why you can't do both in the same year? Seems a bit odd!
Also, any chance that Fable will be doing Glastonbury this year?

 

Gents agreement between Eavis and John Giddings.

Not looking likely we'll do Glasto again this year, but not impossible. Currently talking to the Bestival lot (and a few others).

 

Ah ok, so as to not discourage people from going to both.
Damn, that's a shame. I bet she'd be perfect for Shangri-la. I'm sure I'll get to see her live eventually! Speaking of Fable, any new music on the horizon?

 

I used to live in Horndean and a trip out to Butser Hill and QE Country Park was always a brilliant (and cheap) day out with the kids when they were little.
I'd agree with Fats here, PL. If she's the right girl, she'd love it (or, as he suggests, a beach - try getting the ferry across to Hayling and walking along the beach with a flask) - it's fun and romantic. Good luck!

 

Oh God. Is it getting to that time again? I have to start thinking about Valentine's Day? I invariably do it wrong ......

 

Good man? You're making progress - you'll be fine. She clearly likes you or she wouldn't have kept hold of your hand, Pomps. Just take it easy, don't be pushy and let things develop - but be romantic - "Fatsdates.com" is right.
I won't give any more advice, though, as my long-term track record is ****

 

We played Shangri La last year!

Yes, lots of new stuff on the way. We're just sorting the money to get it recorded/released.

 

"We" don't do it. Not even a card.

 

For the record, I believe Dave has a great track record of making them fall in love..... eh Dave?

 

Good for you. I quite agree. That's the sensible way.

 

Well, yes, that IS true. Sadly, they seem to fall out again and disappear - mainly with most of my earnings, pension and savings ......

 

Same here. We express our love all year round. 20 years, last 11 engaged. Maybe we are doing something right.

 

Maybe you should buy a wedding ring!!!

 

I hope they don't start reviewing any of our games!

More on the news that the Football Association is looking at introducing retrospective bans for players who dive or feign injury.

Officials will visit Scotland, where retrospective bans are already used.

In England, players are currently only given retrospective bans for incidents of violent conduct.

It is understood a rule change would require agreement from all football governing bodies in England.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche believes diving would be eradicated from football "in six months" with retrospective bans.

Dyche's comments come after two recent incidents in Premier League matches.

Robert Snodgrass apologised for going down without contact to earn a penalty for Hull against Crystal Palace, while Dele Alli won a debated spot-kick in Tottenham's 5-0 win over Swansea.

 

Only going to affect us, unless FIFA adapt something similar and make it a global rule. Though blatant dives should absolutely be punished.

 

As much as I would love to I think she prefers the upgrade of the engagement ring every 4-5 years

 

She's got more than one finger I assume? Rings can be worn on any of them you know.
