    I have noticed the BCFC forum is starting to look like a reserve Watford forum. There is a match thread and post a lie thread. What will be next?

    Bad news from Toulouse today where a gunman has shot and killed three children and a teacher at a Jewish school. The same gun was used last week to kill three black soldiers not far away. It has all of the hallmarks of a race hate crime, or a mentally deranged person. I am afraid that in the south of the country the NF are very strong and they are not very quick to condemn this sort of outrage.

    I know that H did have worries that this sort of thing might happen in the UK at some time in the future. I think it is an isolated incident, but it has been making the politicians re-examine the immigration policies that are in force at present. With large ghettos of people who often are not in work, living alongside those who do work, every now and again you can see the tensions rise.

    Evening all

    BT has been messing about in the Hampshire lanes today, meaning no-one here has had any internet connection until now. Had to have a pint in a real pub instead of the Nest...

    I have tweeted Syd and will keep a look out for info.

    UPDATE: It would appear that it was simply due to very high numbers. There was over 10,000 users on the site earlier, most of them guests. Its mainly due to a thread about the Tulisa Contostavlos sex tape that was leaked. So when people googled it, we came up and people were trying to 'sneak a peak'.

    My "other" team have just signed a Icelandic striker called Alfreð Finnbogason on a 6 month loan. Do you know if he's any good Ak? He made a scoring debut tonight in a friendly against Ängelholm. His Wiki page says he started out with Breiðablik UBK and has been playing in Belgium the last couple of years. You seem to be someone who might know a little more.

    I cant help laugh at that. 10,000 pervs all hoping to catch a glimpse of Tulisa shagging someone. Clearly most of them are virgins who live in their mothers basement. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    I only go to pubs which from time to time have some Hook Norton best bitter in.
    A very old chair where I can stuff half a cheese and pickle sandwich down the side for later.
    A real wood fire.


    And lots of people who can talk about Watford for an entire evening without stopping to draw breath.;)

    Evening all - Just back from a very sad and difficult funeral..my very good mates ex-wife passed after a 3 year fight with MND..their 2 daughters have struggled for nearly 3 years with looking after her - I will not even go into her "new" partner, apart from the fact that his son and all his mates are big scummers - we were kept apart all afternoon....

    I am giving up trying to post on here tonight. It has been a nightmare for whatever reason. You would have thought that the kiddies would have gone to bed by now if they were clogging it up.

    The racism in France has never really gone away sadly, and there are pockets of the country where it is worse, certainly in the south. I hope they catch the madman on the motorbike soon, to gun down children, the man obviously has no heart. Sickening. I do think the racism in France is very different to what i believe will happen here eventually...but it's reminiscent of the racism of the 70s...and that is growing here too, simply because of the economic climate...when money is bad, so is racism.

    Apparently that's not exactly what she was doing ;)

    {{{hugs}}} so sorry w_y...these things are hard enough, without additional traumas.

    Sadly, the hit rate pushed the site right to the top of the google tree, we're lower down the list now but not out of the woods yet!

    Morning all, a bright clear sunny day, although there was a frost overnight. The garden centres will be rubbing their hands together in glee as last week with high temperatures many people were buying plants to put outside. A few more warm days and they will be buying them again.

    French lesson this morning and I am up to date with my homework. Missed last week, so I feel certain that I will be picked on to see if I am up to speed. No chance. :(

    This afternoon I have some carpentry to do for my daughter, so looking forward to the match tonight and a glass or two of the red stuff. ;)
