    Any idea what is going on with this site H? Have you had any info about why it keeps asking if you want to leave this page? Seems as if the problem started after the server upgrade you mentioned the other day. Doesn't happen all the time, but BB and myself were suffering on the match thread and now it has started again.

    Una paloma for Mexican Hornet
    Red wine for NZ

    The surprise of the transfer window was there was no surprise. Chris Iwelumo is away on loan and so is Piero Mingoia. Both I think will go completely in the summer break, as one is expensive and the other is small.

    Petrol prices went higher yesterday. They are now the most expensive I have ever seen. ÍSK260,2 for bensín and ÍSK265,- for deisel, or GBP129,2 and GBP131,6. This is too much.

    That is odd. Britain must buy large amounts and can arrange a good deal, unless your politicians are greedy and are taking too much tax on the price. We have 24,5% VAT and a tax of ÍSK42,23 for petrol and ÍSK45,- for diesel.

    I had the same message and a friend request on FB from a similar name - looked like one of those Nigerian scams, still I am probably a multi-millionaire after winnning the Lagos lottery or a long lost aunt has died and left me gudzillions..

    not606 is aware of all the spam messages received over the last couple of days and is working very hard to get them blocked :)

    What stinking weather here today. Very warm, yet with loads of rain and a strong wind. Clearly not going to get anything done around the estate, so went to Limoges for some bits and pieces and a spot of lunch.

    On the way back we noticed just how full of water all the ditches were. Glad to say that the councils still clear them out on a regular basis as it seems to prevent the roads flooding.

    Apparently all of the corporate availability has been sold for our last home game against the dirty ones...

    Big end to the season coming up, let's hope we can maintain some good form to the end. (A few hiccups expected of course, we are Watford FC after all.)

    Morning all from a chilly bandit country. I stayed in last night and did not even have 1 glass of wine! <yikes>. So I am wide awake and bored already - cannot wait until this afternoon and get back to winning ways.
    Will be interesting to see how many changes Zola makes today :wink:
