    No-one is tonight, rubbish match as Man Utd were given a bye to the final. If Forest somehow score twice then... I'll still not bother.

    On your last point ... the loan being written off would not create a tax liability for a UK resident company ...

    Not sure how you work that out?

    Them: Villa (when they were rubbish), Burnley, Charlton and Forest. 2 prem teams, 2 non-prem teams.

    Us: Leicester, Palace, Southampton, Bournemouth. All 4 rounds have been prem teams.

    We've both been lucky with home games too. Think it's fair to say we've both been favourites in all the rounds, but given we're 3rd and 4th in the Premiership that's not a massive surprise really.

    Yeah have a few I think but I don't recall walking past one and was looking specifically for a cafe. Don't normally eat in Spoons anyway tbh as the food tends to be grim.

    In hindsight I doubt it'd have been much worse but there we go. It did the job which was required.

    Villa is a harder game than anything you faced. Your hardest game will have been Crystal Palace. Burnley possibly the hardest of the lot, they're very good under Kompany.

    Both your quarters and semi-finals were walk overs for that stage, let's be honest.

    Burnley and Charlton are both tougher opposition than Leicester tbf.

    Spoons breakfasts are OK.

    Ticked the boxes you were looking for this morning I'd have said.



    *was busy this morning or I'd have suggested it!

    Oh yeah it'd have defo done the job this morning for sure. And had I known that I'd spend 20 minutes walking round finding **** all I might have looked for one.

    I do like to find small family run cafes generally for that sort of thing. Lesson learned for next time!

    There'll be plenty around it's just finding them. When we went on our honeymoon back in 2009 we went to Washington and New York, I planned out everything for Washington including where we'd eat. For New York I figured it would be easy and we'd just see what we found... my wifes vegetarian and we had a nightmare finding places. Realistically there will have been tons of places near us but we kept going into restaurant's where people were offering to "pick the meat off" the food for us. It was bizarre.

    There was definitely one not too far from hotel down Quayside but I walked in the opposite direction, wrongly thinking the centre would be easier to find something...
